PREFACE. 


This  txjak,  with  its  42$  pages,  is  the  first  attempt  at  x Directory  and  History,  so  far 
as  Plymouth  Comity  is  concerned.  It  lias  been  our  endeavor  in  this  work  to  furnish 

1st.  A oontlenseuand  yet  a comprehensive  Historical  sketch  of  each  town  in  the 
Countv. 

2d.  Tl*e  names,  residences  and  occupations  of  the  voters  of  the  County,  as  well  as 
a Oeuerxl  Business  Directory  of  the  same. 

3d.  A.  gaod  advertising  medium  for  the  business  men,  both  in  aud’out  of  the  County. 

Had  we  realized  at  tlie  outset — as  we  do  iwvv,  tl»e  very  large  outlay  of  tin>e  ami 
money  the  enterprise  would  require,  we  miglit  liave  shrunk  from  engaging  in  it.  W < 
have  aimed  as  far  as  possible  at  accuracy  of  information,  but  the  reader  will  see  that 
in  such  a work,  dealing  as  it  does  mainly  with  strange  names,  there  is  peculiar  liabili- 
ty to  error. 

It  was  our  intention  to  Itave  issued  the  book  several  weeks  earlier,  bn  to  wing  to  the 
procrastination  of  some  of  those  upon  whom  w e were  dependent  for  information,  as 
well  as  the  unlbrseen  obstacles,  its  issue  has  been  delayed. 

Our  advertising  pages  contain  the  cards  of  nearly  every  first  class  establishment 
(throughout  the  County,  as  well  as  many  good  Houses  elsewhere,  and  the  leader  will 
<do  well  to  oonsult  that  iTartof  the  work. 

For  three  of  the  engravings  of  Manufacturing  Establishments  *vc  are  indebted  to 
Hon.  Benjamin  Hobart,  Author  and  Publisher  of  the  History  of  Abington- 

To  the  faithful  agents  who  have  l)een  in  our  employ,  as  well  as  to  large  numbers  of 
(citizens  who  have  aided  us  in  many  ways,  as  well  .as  to  the  several  gentlemen  who 
have  given  us  histories  of  their  towns,  we  tender  the  cordial  thanks  of 

THE  PUBLISHERS.

SKETCH  OF  THE  HISTORY  OF  PLYMOUTH 

COUNTY. 


BY  REV.  JOHN  A.  VINTON. 

r pHE  History  of  the  County  of  Plymouth  dates  back  to  the  land- 
ing  of  the  Pilgrims  in  1620. 

Rejecting  the  traditions  of  men,  and  adhering  closely  and  resolutely 
to  the  teachings  of  inspired  Scripture,  a congregation  of  faithful  men 
was  formed  for  the  worship  of  God  and  the  enjoyment  of  his  ordinances, 
at  the  village  of  Scrooby,  in  Nottinghamshire,  England,  in  the  year 
1606.  Of  this  chure^,  John  Robinson  was  the  teacher,  while  Richard 
Clifton,  a somewhat  older  man,  was  the  pastor.  Harrassed  by  perse- 
cution, they  resolved  to  quit  their  native  soil,  and  take  refuge  in 
Holland  : a purpose  which  they  accomplished  in  1608.  After  sojourn- 
ing in  Amsterdam  a few  months,  they  removed  to  Leyden,  where  they 
remained  about  eleven  years.  A just  concern  for  their  children,  who 
were  liable,  by  a prolonged  residence  in  Holland,  to  lose,  not  only  their 
native  tongue  and  their  very  name  as  English,  but  also  to  follow  the 
evil  practices  which  prevailed  around  them;  this,  together  with  an 
earnest  desire  to  extend  the  bounds  of  Christendom,  determined  them 
at  length  to  remove  beyond  the  Atlantic,  and  to  set  up  the  banner  of 
the  Cross  in  the  New  World.  After  many  disappointments,  the  plan 
was  carried  into  execution  in  the  latter  part  of  the  year  1620. 

On  Monday,  the  eleventh  day  of  December  in  that  year,  reckoning 
according  to  the  old  style,  corresponding  to  the  twenty-first  of  that 
month,  new  style,  an  exploring  party  of  ten  men  from  the  Mayflower, 
which  had  brought  them  across  the  ocean,  landed  at  Plymouth.  The 
party  consisted  of  John  Carver,  William  Bradford,  and  other  leading 
individuals.*  After  a full  examination  of  the  locality,  they  determined 

* The  popular  apprehension  that  the  whole  company  of  the  Mayflower  landed  on 
the  11th  [21st]  of  December,  is  founded  in  error.  The  pictorial  representation  of  wo- 
men and  children  on  shore,  and  of  the  vessel  as  at  anchor  in  Plymouth  harbor  on  that 
day , has  no  just  foundation.  Only  ten  men — not  one  woman— landed  from  the  shallop 
at  that  time,  and  only  for  the  purpose  of  discovery.  The  Mayflower  continued  at  her 
anchorage  in  Provincetown  harbor — where  she  had  been  since  November  11,— till  the 
Saturday  following  Dec.  16,  when  she  was  brought  to  Plymouth.  The  landing  of  the 
entire  company,  then  commenced,  was  not  completed  till  March,  1621.  There  is  no 
reason  to  doubt  that  the  rock  on  which  the  landing  took  place,  is  historical.  The  rock 
is  a bowlder,  and  must  itself  have  travelled  a long  distance.

to  begin  there  tile  new1  settlement.  Haying  made  report  to  their  com- 
panions, the  vessel  was  brought  into  the  harbor  a few  days  after,  and 
the  settlement  commenced. 

So  severe  were  their  sufferings,  partly  from  the  length  of  the  voyage 
— they  had  been  on  ship-board  since  August  1 — but  more  from  the  in- 
clemency of  the  season,  and  from  bad  food,  it  came  to  pass  that  forty- 
six  of  the  company,  out  of  one  hundred  and  two  who  came  in  the 
Mayflower,  died  before  spring. 

In  March  1621,  they  were  visited  by  a party  of  the  natives,  headed 
by  Massasoit  their  chief  sachem,  from  the  borders  of  Rhode  Island. 
A treaty  of  friendship  and  mutual  succor  was  concluded,  which  re- 
mained in  force  fifty-four  years. 

The  aboriginal  inhabitants  of  Plymouth  County,  at  the  time  of  which 
we  are  speaking,  were  very  few  in  number.  A few  years  previous,  a 
terrible  pestilence  had  almost  exterminated  the  powerful  nation  of  the 
Pokanokets,  who  once  overspread  the  whole  region  included  between 
Narragansett  Bay  and  the  coast-line  of  Plymouth  County.  Instead  of 
three  thousand  warriors  whom  they  could  have  raised  ten  years  be- 
fore, scarcely  five  hundred  could  now  be  found.  Within  the  bounds 
of  this  County,  only  the  Namaskets,  a small  subdivision  of  Pokanokets, 
were  to  be  found  in  1620 ; they  were  seated  in  Middleboro. 

In  the  following  November,  the  infant  colony  was  strengthened  by 
the  arrival  of  Robert  Cushman  and  about  thirty  other  emigrants,  in 
the  Fortune,  a vessel  of  fifty-five  tons  burden.  Their  number  was  still 
further  increased  in  July  and  August  1623,  by  the  arrival  of  the  Ann 
and  Little  James,  two  small  vessels  bringing  about  sixty  passengers. 
To  those  who  came  in  the  four  vessels  already  named,  is  now  restricted, 
by  correct  usage,  the  appellation  of  Pilgrims.  During  these  three 
years,  terrible  hardships  were  endured  without,  a murmur,  by  these 
heroic  men  and  women,  in  the  firm  belief  that  God  had  sent  them  to 
these  then  inhospitable  shores,  for  the  maintenance  of  Gospel  liberty, 
and  for  the  advancement  of  his  cause.  When  ten  years  had  elapsed, 
the  colony  had  increased  to  the  number  of  only  three  hundred  persons. 
With  the  exception  of  an  outpost  established  at  Manomet,  in  the  pre- 
sent town  of  Sandwich,  the  population  was  confined,  during  those  ten 
years,  wholly  to  the  town  of  Plymouth,  including  Kingston  and  Dux- 
bury.  The  progress  of  settlement,  from  various  causes,  was  far  less 
rapid  than  in  the  neighboring  colony  of  Massachusetts  Bay. 

A spirit  of  enterprise,  however,  was  early  awakened  among  the  Ply- 
mouth people.  About  the  year  1630,  they  had  established  a post  for 
trading  with  the  Indians  on  the  Penobscot,  and  two  or  three  years 
later,  another  on  the  Kennebec,  and  still  another  on  the  Connecticut, 
at  Windsor.  These  establishments  soon  came  to  an-  end. 

Sixteen  years  after  the  landing,  there  were  eight  towns  within  the 
colony.  We  will  name  them  in  the  order  of  their  establishment.

•1.  Plymouth,  inclusive  of  the  present  towns  of  Kingston,  Flympton, 
Carver,  part  of  Halifax,  and  part  of  Wareham. 

2.  Duxbury  is  reckoned  the  second  town  in  the  colony,  because  its 
church,  originally  the  second  church  in  Plymouth,  was  gathered  in 
1632,  though  the  town  was  not  incorporated  till  1637.  It  included 
Pembroke  and  Hanson. 

3.  Scituate,  including  Hanover,  was  incorporated  in  1636. 

4—7.  Sandwich,  Taunton,  Yarmouth,  and  Barnstable,  neither  of 
which  are  now'  in  Plymouth  County,  were  incorporated  in  1639. 

8.  Marshfield,  taken  from  Duxbury,  was  incorporated  in  1640.  It 
was  afterwards  increased  by  adding  a section  of  Scituate. 

To  these  towuis,  Bridgew  ater  was  added  in  1C56,  and  Middleboio 
in  1669.  We  omit  to  mention  ten  or  twelve  other  towns,  incorporated 
betw  een  1640  and  1690,  and  notjiow  belonging  to  the  County  of  Ply- 
mouth. 

In  1646,  the  population  of  the  town  of  Plymouth  was  greatly  di- 
minished by  the  removal  of  many  of  its  inhabitants  to  Eastham  on 
Capo  Cod.  Eastham  then  included  Wellfleet  and  Orleans.  Bridge- 
water  was  at  first  a mere  extension  of  Duxbury,  from  which  town  it 
received  its  inhabitants. 

The  leading  men,  from  the  settlement  till  1690,  were  William  Brad- 
ford of  Plymouth,  • Edward  Winslow  of  Marshfield,  Miles  Standish 
and  John  Alden,  of  Duxbury,  and  Thomas  Prince  of  Eastham,  after- 
wards of  Plymouth,  all  of  the  first  generation.  To  these  may  be 
added  of  the  second  generation,  William  Bradford  the  younger,  Josiab 
Winslow,  Thomas  Hinckley,  Thomas  and  Constant  Southworth, 
James  Cudworth,  Benjamin  Church.  Of  the  spiritual  guides  of  the 
colonists,  we  may  mention  William  Brewster  of  Plymouth,  Palph 
Partridge  of  Duxbury,  Peter  Hob  aft  and  John  Norton  of  Hingham, 
(then  in  Suffolk  County),  Edward  Bulkley  and  Samuel  Arnold  of 
Marshfield,  Samuel  Puller  of  Middleboro,  John  Lothrop  and  Charles 
Chauncy  of  Scituate. 

The  early  population  were  almost  all  cultivators  of  the  soil.  What 
little  wealth  there  was,  existed  chiefly  in  lands  and  buildings.  The 
iron  manufacture  was  introduced*  into  the  Old  Colony  in ’1652,  by 
James  and  Henry  Leonard,  who  had  previously  been  connected  with 
the  forges  at  Lynn  and  Braintree.  But  their  establishment  was  in  the 
present  town  of  Paynham,  in  th.e  County  of  Bristol;  and  several  gene- 
rations passed  before  the  manufacture  of  iron  was  commenced  within 
the  County  of  Plymouth.  The  first  vessel  constructed  in  the  County 
was  built  in  the  year  1641,  and  measured  but  forty  or  fifty  tons.  The 
comparative  poverty  of  the  inhabitants  kept  them  for  many  years  be- 
hind their  neighbors  in  Massachusetts. 

The  prosperity  of  the  Old  Colony  in  general,  and  of  this  portion  of 
it  in  particular,  was  greatly  checked  by  the  great  Indian  War  of 


20 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


1675-0,  commonly  referred  to  as  “ Philip’s  War.”  We  shall  notice  the 
events  of  this  war  no  further  than  they  immediately  affected  Plymouth 
County. 

The  war  broke  out  in  June  1675,  in  an  attack  made  by  the  Indians 
on  the  town  ofSwanzey,  which  then  included  Barrington  and  Warren 
in  Rhode  Island.  A small  force  was  immediately  collected  from  the 
Plymouth  towns,  and  marched  to  the  scene  of  blood.  Being  there 
joined  by  troops  from  Boston,  they  had  little  difficulty  in  driving  Philip 
from  his  lair  at  Mount  Hope,  now  Bristol,  R.  I. ; but  it  was  only  that 
he  might  ravage  and  destroy  in  other  places.  Numbers  of  his  men 
crossed  the  Bay  in  canoes,  and  fell  upon  the  settlement  at  Middle- 
boro,  then  recently  commenced.  This  settlement,  and  Dartmouth  in 
the  present  County  of  Bristol,  they  utterly  destroyed.  Those  of  the 
inhabitants  who  were  not  cruelly  butchered,  were  driven  off,  and  did 
not  return  till  after  the  war. 

The  celebrated  campaign  against  the  Narragansett  Indians,  which 
utterly  broke  in  pieces  that  powerful  tribe,  was  conducted  under  the 
orders  of  Josiah  Winslow  of  Marshfield,  son  of  Governor  Edward 
Winslow,  and  himself  Governor  of  Plymouth  Colony  at  this  time.  At 
the  head  of  one  thousand  men,  of  whom  more  than  half  were  from 
Massachusetts  Colony,  three  hundred  from  Connecticut,  and  the  re- 
mainder from  Plymouth,  he  penetrated  in  the  depth  of  winter  into  the 
heart  of  the  Narragansett  Country,  in  the  present  County  of  Washing- 
ton, Rhode  Island.  Three  thousand  five  hundred  Indians  of  fierce  and 
resolute  spirit,  had  betaken  themselves  to  a solid  piece  of  upland,  con- 
taining five  or  six  acres,  situated  in  the  midst  of  a swamp,  which  at 
any  other  season  of  the  year,  would  have  been  found  utterly  impassa- 
ble. This  natural  defence  the  Indians  had  fortified  by  rows  of  pali- 
sades, making  a barrier  nearly  a rod  in  thickness.  The  only  entrance 
to  this  enclosure  was  over  a bridge,  consisting  of  a large  tree  which’  had 
been  felled  for  the  purpose,  which  could  only  be  passed  by  men  in  sin- 
gle file.  This  bridge  was  defended  by  a block-house,  or  rude  bastion 
made  of  logs.  Such  was  the  Narragansett  fort. 

The  colonial  army,  having  passed  the  night  of  the  18th  of  Dec.  1675, 
which  was  cold  and  stormy,  without  shelter,  and  with  little  food, 
marched  at  early  dawn  on  the  19th,  wading  through  the  deep  snow  to 
attack  this  formidable  fort,  garrisoned  by  an  enemy  more  than  twice 
their  own  number.  Men  who  were  determined  to  conquer  or  die,  en- 
tered the  fort,  and  after  a sharp  conflict  of  two  or  three  hours  gained 
possession  of  it,  inflicting  a loss  on  the  enemy  of  probably  a thousand 
fighting  men,  besides  women  and  children  consumed  in  the  burning 
wigwams:  but  themselves  suffering  the  loss  of  seventy  men  killed,  in- 
cluding six  captains,  and  one  hundred  and  fifty  wounded.  Such  was 
the  “ Great  Swamp  Eight,”  never  to  be  forgotten  in  the  history  of  New 
England. 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY.  21 

On  the  13th  of  March,  1676,  the  Indians  made  an  attack  on  the 
hamlet  of  Eel  River,  now  Chiltonville,  three  miles  soutli  of  the  prin- 
cipal village  in  Plymouth,  and  killed  eleven  of  its  inhabitants. 

The  tide  of  war  now  rolling  towards  the  Plymouth  Colony,  the  au- 
thorities despatched  Captain  Michael  Pierce  of  Scituate,  with  fifty  of 
the  English,  and  twenty  friendly  Indians  from  Cape  Cod,  to  attack  the 
remains  of  the  Narragansett  tribe,  who,  exasperated  with  their  recent 
defeat,  lost  no  opportunity  of  falling  upon  defenceless  settlements. 
Capt.  Pierce  having  been  waylaid  by  a strong  force  of  the  enemy,  near 
Pawtucket  Falls,  a severe  action  took  place  March  26,  1676,  in  which 
Capt.  Pierce  was  killed,  and  all  of  his  white  companions,  save  one,  met 
the  same  sad  fate.  The  loss  of  the  enemy  was  supposed  to  be  nearly 
thrice  as  great.  This  was  the  most  serious  disaster  sustained  by  the 
Plymouth  Colony  during  the  war. 

Scituate  was  attacked  April  20,  and  nineteen  houses  and  barns 
burned.  The  inhabitants  succeeded  in  repelling  the  enemy.  Bridge- 
water  was  attacked  May  8,  but  the  assailants  were  repulsed.  During 
the  whole  war,  though  Bridgewater  was  repeatedly  attacked,  and 
though  Bridgewater  men  faced  the  enemy  in  battle,  not  a single  in- 
habitant of  that  town  was  killed. 

On  the  12tli,  of  August,  1676,  Philip,  the  chief  promoter  of  all  this 
mischief,  beset  at  his  own  home  on  the  peninsula  of  Mount  Hope  by 
the  forces  of  that  brave  partisan  leader,  Capt.  Benjamin  Church,  was 
killed  by  a Saconel  Indian,  named  Alderman,  and  the  war  substan- 
tially ended. 

In  this  severe  struggle,  Plymouth  Colony  was  nearly  ruined.  After 
many  ineffectual  attempts  to  obtain  a charter — which  it  never  possessed 
— Plymouth  Colony  was  annexed  to  Massachusetts  in  1 692. 

The  history  of  the  County  since  that  time  is  merged  in  the  history 
of  Massachusetts.  Until  this  day,  however,  some  portion  of  the  dis- 
tinctive traits  of  the  first  settlers  may  be  dimmed  among  its  popula- 
tion. To  a remarkable  degree,  the  ohLJffigrim  love  of  liberty,  coupled 
with  the  determination  to  do  right  At  alt  Jkazards,  still  exists  among 
their  descendants.  During  the  loim^  and  arduous  struggle,  which  so 
recently  ended  in  the  overthrow  of  slavery  in  our  land,  no  portion  of 
the  American  people  were  more  oryMRten,  and  perhaps  none  so  nearly 
unanimous  in  their  condemnation  of  that  enormous  wrong,  as  the  peo- 
ple of  the  three  southern  counties  of  Massachusetts. 

The  County  of  Plymouth  has  furnished  its  full  proportion  of  talent, 
of  genius,  of  learning,  and  of  enterprise  ; though  men  of  eminence 
have  often  been  drawn  off  to  wider  fields  of  action.  Its  sons  have 
borne  their  full  share  of  toil,  of  effort,  and  of  suffering,  in  all  the  con- 
tests in  which  the  country  has  been  engaged,  and  have  often  been  ad- 
vanced to  positions  of  honor  and  influence. 


22  PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 

» 

The  County  of  Plymouth  was  organized  in  1685,  and  then  consisted 
of  the  following  towns  : 

Plymouth,  then  including  Plympton,  Kingston,  Carver,  part  of  Hali- 
fax, and  part  of  Wareham. 

Duxbury , then  including  Pembroke  and  Hanson,  and  small  por- 
tions of  Kingston. 

Scituate,  then  including  Hanover. 

Marshfield. 

Bridgewater , then  including  West  Bridgewater  [the  original  settle- 
ment], North  Bridgewater,  East  Bridgewater,  and  Bridgewater,  the 
last  having  been  known  as  the  South  Parish  in  Bridgewater. 

Middlcborough , including  Lakeville,  and  part  of  Halifax. 

Accord  Pond  Shares,  ) Plantations,  parts  of  Scituate,  Hanover, 

Ford’s  Farm,  $ and  the  whole  of  Abington. 

Accord  Pond  in  Abington,  [I  think],  was  so  named  to  commemorate 
the  harmony  of  the  Commissioners,,  who  run  the  line  between  the  Col- 
onies of  Massachusetts  Bay  and  Plymouth. 

There  are  no  data  from  which  we  can  learn  the  precise  population 
of  the  County  of  Plymouth  at* that  time,  nor  for  a long  time  after.  In 
1675,  the  whole  population  of  the  Colony  of  Plymouth,  including  what 
in  1685  became  the  counties  of  Plymouth,  Bristol  and  Barnstable,  was 
estimated  at  seven  thousand,  five  hundred,  (7,50u.)  The  population  of 
those  three  counties  did  not  in  1685,  probably  exceed  10,000.  The 
population  of  Plymouth  County  at  that  time  may  be  set  down  as  not 
exceeding  4000. 

Some  estimate  may  be  formed  of  the  comparative  population  and 
importance  of  the  several  towns  composing  Plymouth  County,  from  the 
following  statement. 

In  1690,  a body  of  troops  was  raised  in  Plymouth  Colony,  to  be 
under  the  command  of  Major  Benjamin  Church,  and  to  march  against 
the  Indians,  who  were  then  ravaging  our  eastern  frontier,  or  the  por- 
tion of  Maine  which  liesl^ween  the  Piscataqua  and  the  Kennebec. 
The  soldiers  who  were  the  money  to  be  raised  were  appor- 

tioned among  the  towns  of  Plymouth  County  as  follows :

From  this  it  appears  that  Scituate  was  then  the  most  important  town 
in  the  county.  If  a sufficient  number  of  volunteers  could*  not  be  ob- 
tained, the  deficiency  was  to  be  supplied  by  impressment. 

A portion  of  the  force  which  was  to  go  with  Church,  was  raised  in

the  other  counties,  Bristol  and  Barnstable.  I believe  also  that  a por- 
tion of  Church’s  command  was  raised  in  the  neighboring  Colony  of 
Massachusetts.  In  Plymouth  Colony,  all  the  able-bodied  males  between 
10  and  CO  were  enrolled  in  the  military  companies,  though  clergymen 
and  many  others  were  exempted. 

In  1092,  the  Colonies  of  Plymouth  and  Massachusetts  Bay,  wero 
united,  much  to  the  dissatisfaction  of  the  former.

ABINGTOJST 


BY  REV.  H.  D.  WALKER. 


II EBP  seems  something  prophetic  in  the  naming  of  this  town. 

_J_  It  must  always  stand  at  the  head  of  all  alphabetical  arrangments  of 
the  towns  of  Plymouth  County,  for  none  that  might  possibly  be  incor- 
porated can  so  spell  themselves  as  to  take  precedence.  Yet  those 
who  gave  it  the  name  could  hardly  have  anticipated  that  in  one  hun- 
dred and  fifty  years  the  almost  wilderness  they  so  designated  would  be 
the  first  town  in  the  county  in  population,  business  and  wealth. 

Back  from  the  shore  and  consequently  having  no  harbors,  having  no 
considerable  streams  and  no  great  water  power  because  it  is  the  almost 
level  water  shed  between  the  bays  on  either  side,  it  did  not  invite 
the  earlj  settlers  of  the  county.  There  is  nothing  romantic  or  attrac- 
tive in  its  scenery,  and  the  soil  though  strong  and  productive  is  gen- 
erally rough  and  hard.  It  is  not  strange  therefore  that  at  its  incor- 
poration in  1710,  the  town  had  prob ably les^  than  300  inhabitants,  only 
three  times  the  number  Plymouth  had,  when,  ninety  years  before,  the 
Pilgrims  had  landed.  At  the  first  ce^Bfi  in  1726,  the  number  had  in- 


creased only  to  371. 

At  that  period  and  long  afterwards  it  was  for  the  surrounding  coun- 
try a “lumbering  region.”  “Saw  mills”  and  “ship  timber”  were  the 
business  terms.  Saw  mills  were  erected  in  1698,  and  the  settlers  look- 
ed to  Hingham,  Scituate,  Hanover,  Duxbury,  Plymouth,  where  ships 
were  built  and  commerce  and  trade  prospered,  as  the  old  and  wealth; 
towns  upon  which  they  depended  for  a market  and  supplies.  Th 
quality  and  quantity  of  the  timber  produced  is  illustrated  by  the  fact 
remembered  by  the  old  people  with  grateful  pride,  that  the  renowne 


24 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


frigate  Constitution,  the  “Old  Ironsides”  was  built  in  great  part  of 
Abington  white  oak.  But  the  tijne  came  when  the  soil  that  produced 
this  giant  growth  of  timber  must  offer  in  its  culture  the  principal 
business,  and  so  agriculture  be  the  dependence  of  the  town.  Very  nat- 
urally there  was  at  that  period  much  emigration  to  regions  that  seemecl 
better  adapted  to  that  pursuit  than  this  hard,  rough  soil  that  demand- 
ed so  much  labor. 

For  a long  period  there  was  consequently  very  little  growth.  There 
had  been  some  little  manufacturing  quite  early,  some  rude  “earthen 
ware,”  “meetinghouse  bells,”  and  “cannon  and  shot”  for  the  war  of  the 
revolution.  “Tacks,”  still  an  important  item  in  the  business  of  the 
town,  were  early  made  by  hand,  and  a citizen,  Mr.  Jesse  Reed,  invented 
the  machine  which  has  given  the  business  such  impulse. 

There  were  other  home  manufactures  on  a small  scale  by  the  indus- 
trious inhabitants  who  seem  purposed  that  the  town  shall  always  be 
worthy  of  its  old  Indian  name  “Manamooskeagin”  said  to  signify 
“many  beavers.”  But  the  introduction  of  the  Boot  and  Shoe  business 
after  1820  or  30,  and  the  turning  to  that  manufacture  the  enterprise 
and  energy  of  the  people,  gave  a marked  impulse  to  the  prosperity  and 
growth  of  Abington.  Rapidly  passing  town  after  town  in  the  county 
it  has  now  nearly  reached  the  point  where  it  could  claim  incorpora- 
tion as  a city. 

Fortunately  or  unfortunately  there  are  four  distinct  centres  of  its 
business  and  population,  and  Centre,  North,  South  and  East  Abington 
have  perhaps  less  business  intercourse  with  each  other  than  with  Boston. 
These  three  other  villages  are  each  about  two  miles  distant  from  the 
Centre,  and  the  Old  Colony  Rail  Road,  the  avenue  of  trade  for  the 
four,  opened  in  1845,  treating  them  quite  impartially;  touches  and  so 
fully  accommodates  none.  The  Hanover  Branch,  to  be  opened  in  the 
Summer  or  Fall  of  ‘07,  will  pass  through  the  East  village  and  perhaps 


give  a new  impulse  to  that  already  largest  section  of  the  town. 

There  are  four  Orthodox  Congregationalist  Societies,  one  in  each  vil- 
lage, a Baptist  Society  in  the  South  and  East,  a New  Jerusalem  and 
IJniversalist  at  the  Centre,  all  with  good,  and  some  with  elegant  houses 
of  worship. 

Perhaps  no  town  in  the  StaWfeas  so  large  a proportion  of  children 
to  its  valuation.  With  as  many  scholars  as  some  towns  that  have 
many  fold  its  wealth,  and  divided  into  so  many  different  villages,  it 
cannot  foolishly  attempt  to  vie  with  such  towns  in  school  buildings,  and 
only  by  the  most  rigid  and  wise  economy  maintain  good  schools, 
hich  the  people  have  always  been  most  earnest  to  do.  Such  has 
ways  been  the  absorbing  business  activity  and  energy  of  the  people, 
lat  very  few  of  its  young  men  have  ever  found  their  way  to  College. 

Jieir  chosen  path  to  usefulness  and  eminence  has. been  that  of  raanu- 
acture  and  trade  rather  than  literature.

Mrs.  Pratt,  in  connection  with  the  education  of  her  own  daughters,  is  prepared 
to  receive  into  her  family  and  school,  a limited  number  of  Young  Ladies  and  Misses 
from  ten  to  sixteen  years  of  age. 

The  school  is  in  a quiet,  healthy  locality,  just  beside  the  beach,  with  a southern  out- 
look over  the  beautiful  bay,  making  it  popular  as  a Summer  resort.  Mattapoisett  is

PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


Tho  citizens  of  Abington  have  however  never  fallen  behind  those  of 
any  other  town  in  appreciating  all  tho  great  issues  of  every  period  of 
our  history.  They  were  not  tories  in  the  war  of  the  revolution,  they 
were  ready  to  defend  their  country  in  that  of  1812,  they  rushed  to 
save  it  when  lately  traitors  would  destroy. 

It  is  not  to  tho  fact  that  the  Boot  and  Shoo  business  of  the  town  is 
now  probably  about  81,000,000  annually,  the  Tack  and  other  branches 
most  successfully  prosecuted,  to  the  general  thrift  and  prosperity  of  the 
town,  but  to  its  record  on  tho  side  of  patriotism  and. right,  that  those 
who  would  know  Abington  are  pointed.  No  town  lost  more  by  the 
breaking  out  of  the  rebellion.  More  than  a million  of  dollars  were 
at  once  sunk  in  debts  at  tho  South.  The  shock  was  fearful,  but 
courage  did  not  fail  and  money  and  men  and  goods  were  raised  with- 
out stint  for  the  country.  A company  from  Abington  was  one  of  those 
that  within  twenty-four  hours  after  the  first  call  for  75,000  men,  were 
on  their  wa^  to  Fortress  Monroe.  More  than  a full  regiment,  1138 
from  this  town  enlisted  during  the  war.  The  town  furnished  more 
than  its  quota  of  officers.  Two  Lieutenant  Colonels,  Three  Majors, 
Twelve  Captains,  Seven  1st  Lieutenants,  Twelve  2d  Lieutenants. 

The  present  condition,  the  business . prospects  of  the  town,  will  best 
be  learned  from  the  Directory.  Those  who  desire  to  know  the  par- 
ticulars of*  its  history  are  referred  to  “the  History  of  Abington,”  pub- 
lished in  1866,  by  Benjamin  Hobart,  Esq.,  one  of  its  oldest  and  most 
honored  citizens.  We  are  indebted  to  Mr.  Hobart’s  work  for  valuable 
■engravings  as  well  as  the  following  facts 

The  records  of  the  first  Church,  earlier  than  1721,  cannot  be  found. 
At  that  time  there  were  46  members.  The  first  house  of  worship 
stood  in  front  of  the  old  burying-ground.  It  had  neither  steeple,  hell 
or  pews.  The  second  edifice  was  erected  in  1751 ; the  third  in  1819  ; 
and  the  present  house  in  1819.  The  Pastors  were  Samuel  Brown, 
1714-1749;  Ezekiel  Dodge,  1750-1770;  Samuel  Niles,  1771-1814; 
Holland  Weeks,  1815-1820;  Samuel  Spring,  jr.,  1822-1826;  Win. 
43hedd,  1829-1830  ; Melancthon  -Gk  Wheeler,  1831-1833  ; James  W. 
Ward,  1834-1856;  F.  B.  Abbe,  present  pastor,  ordained  Sep.  3,  1857. 

The  second  Parish  was  formed  in  1807,  of  inhabitants  of  South 
Abington  and  East  Bridgewater,  after  strenuous  opposition.  The 
house  of  worship  was  dedicated  and  Eev.  Daniel  Thomas  was  or- 
dained in  1808,  dismissed  in  1842.  There  were  16  members.  Dennis 
Powers  was  minister  eight  years ; Selden  Hayes,  and  Alfred  ■ Grold- 
tsmith,  one  year  each.  H.  L.  Edwards,  present  pastor,  installed  in 
1855. 

The  Third  Church  was  formed  at  the  house  of  Samuel  Heed,  Aug. 
'27,  1813.  Pastors,  Samuel  W.  Colburn,  1813-1830  ; Lucius  Alden, 
3.832-1834;  Horace  D.  Walker  ordained  in  1844.

meetings  in  the  State.)  The  oration-was  delivered  by  Lev.  E.  1 otter 
Dyer.  Fifty  soldiers  of  the  war  of  1812,  appeared  m procession,  to-

Destructive  tornadoes  prevailed  in  Oct.  1804,  and  Sept.  1815.  Thou- 
sands of  fruit  and  forest  trees  were  blown  down,  scores  of  barns  and 
houses  were  unroofed,  and  many  lives  were  lost. 

Rive  natives  of  Abington  became  lawyers.  **

BY  HOSE  A KINGMAN,  ESQ. 

E}  BID  GE  WATER  was  originally  a plantation  granted  to  Duxbury, 
3 by  the  Old  Colony  Court,  in  the  year  1645,  to  compensate  that 
town  for  its  recent  loss  of  territory  by  the  incorporation  of  the  town  of 
Marshfield.  The  original  grant  to  the  inhabitants  of  Duxbury  was  of  a 
competent  proportion  of  land  about  Saughtuckquett  (Satueket),  towards 
the  west  “ four  miles  every  way  from  the  place  where  they  shall  set- 
up their  center.”  This  being  a mere  right  to  purchase  of  the  natives, 
afterwards  in  1649,  a tract  of  land  usually  called  Satueket,  extending 
seven  miles  each  way  from  the  weir  at  Satueket,  was  granted  to 
Miles  Standish,  Samuel  Nash  and  Constant  Southworth,  in  behalf  of 
the  town  of  Duxbury,  by  Ousamequin,  who  afterwards  styled  himself 
Massasoit. 

Although  the  grant  from  the  Court  was  only  four  miles  every  way 
from  a center,  yet  for  some  unexplained  reason,  this  purchase  from 
the  Indians  embraced  seven  miles  every  way  from  the  weir.  No  cen- 
ter was  fired  upon  during  the  time  that  Bridgewater  remained  a part 
of  Duxbury.  In  June,  1656,  this  plantation  was  incorporated,  by  an 
order  of  Court,  into  a separate  and  distinct  town  under  the  name  of 
Bridgewater.  In  the  same  year  Miles  Standish  having  been  granted 
by  the  Court  three  hundred  acres,  with  a competency  of  meadow  at 
Satueket,  provided  it  did  not  intrench  upon  Bridgewater,  it  became 
necessary  that  the  center  of  that  town  should  be  fixed  upon. 

After  several  years  of  delay,  urged  by  repeated  orders  from  the 
Court,  the  town  finally  assented  to  the  setting  up  of  its  center,  about  a 
mile  and  a half  west  of  the  old  weir.  The  monument,  now  a stone 
near  where  the  house  of  Thomas  Hayward  stood  and  near  the  East 
and  W est  depot,  was  a small  white  oak  tree  bearing  the  initials  of 
Constant  Southworth,  who  was  probably  the  Court  committee  appointed 
to  fix  the  center.  In  1662,  in  answer  to  a petition  by  inhabitants  of 
the  town  dated  1658,  the  Court  granted  and  confirmed  to  them  the 
meadow  north  and  west  from  the  center,  and  within  the  seven  miles 
granted  by  Ousamequin.  In  1668,  upon  a petition  praying  for  an  en- 
largement “ the  whole  six  miles  from  the  center,  east,  west,  north 
and  south”  was  granted,  provided  that  grants  of  land  formerly  made 
by  the  Court  be  not  molested.  This  was  known  as  the  two  mile  addi- 
tional grant  and  the  first  as  the  old  four  mile  grant.  By  this  grant 
were  secured  two  additional  miles  on  the  north  towards  the  Massa* 
chusetts  Colony  line,  and  part  on  the  south,  but  little  if  any  on  the 
east  and  west,  as  on  the  east  six  miles  from  the  center  would  inter- 
fere with  an  earlier  grant  called  the  Major’s  Purchase.  On  the  south 
six  miles  would  extend  into  the  Indian  settlement  of  Titicut,  and  all  of 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY.

the  land  on  the  North  side  of  Titicut  river  Avas  within  the  six  miles. 
In  or  about  the  year  1672,  Nicholas  Byram,  Samuel  Edson  and  Will- 
iam Brett  Avere  appointed  to  purchase,  and  did  purchase,  by  a deed 
from  Pomponeho  alias  Peter,  all  the  lands  lying  on  the  north  side  of 
Titicut  river  and.  within  the  bounds  of  Bridgewater,  excepting  two 
parcels  afterwards  purchased  of  the  Indians  by  individuals. 

In  1685,  all  of  these  grants  were  confirmed  by  deed  under  the  hand 
• )f  Governor  Hancock  and  the  seal  of  the  Government;  about  the 
same  time  another  deed  confirming  the  deed  of  Ousamequin  was  made 
by  Josiah  Wampatuek  to  Samuel  Edson,  John  Howard  and  John 
Willis,  agents  for  the  town  of  Bridgewater.  Th  us  the  greater  part  of 
the  town  Avas  tw  ice  purchased  of  the  Indians,  once  of  Massasoit  and 
again  of  JVampatuek.  With. a small  tract  of  land  on  the  North,  along 
the  Colony  line,  purchased  by  individuals  after  the  union  of  the  Colo- 
nies, and  aiyiexed  to  Bridgew  ater  in  October  1730,  these  several  grants 
and  enlargements  constituted  all  the  territory,  ever  belonging  to 
Bridgewater  in  its  greatest  extent.  In  this  situation,  containing  about 
ninety  six  square  miles,  the  town  remained  without  diminution  in  its 
territorial  limits  until  June  10,  1712,  Avlien  the  town  of  Abington  Avas 
incorporated.  Again  on  the  seventh  of  June  1754,  a large  tract  of 
land,  noAv  forming  the  greater  part  of  Hanson,  was  taken  from  Bridge- 
water  and  annexed  to  Pembroke.  Thus  the  toVn  remained  for  nearly 
one  hundred  years,  containing  about  seventy  square  miles.  There 
Avere  of  course  divisions  in  reference  to  church  matters,  made  from 
time  to  time,  five  parishes  being  formed,  the  North,  South,  East,  West, 
and  Titicut.  These  parishes  or  precincts  constituted  the  ground  Avork 
of  the  subsequent  divisions  of  the  town. 

As  early  as  1719,  the  South,  only  three  years  after  its  incorporation 
as  a parish,  applied  to  the  General  Court,  to  be  made  a distinct  toAvn, 
this  although  agreed  to  by  the  remainder  of  the  toAvn  and  granted  by 
the  House,  was  not  concurred  in  by  the  Council;  again,  in  1738,  the 
North  precinct  petitioned  to  be  incorporated  as  a town ; the  remainder 
of  the  tcAvn  at  the  same  time  consented  and  \roted  that  the  South  and 
East  should  become  separate  and  distinct  towns — all  these'  applications 
were  however  resisted  and  it  was  not  until  June  15,  1821,  that  any 
change  was  made.  At  this  time  the  North,  the  youngest,  but 
most  populous  parish,  ay  as  incorporated  by  the  name  of  North  Bridge- 
water.  The  West,  (the  old  town),  Avas  incorporated  February  16,  of  the 
next  year,  by  the  name  of  West  Bridgewater,  and  the  East,  by  the 
name  of  East  Bridgewater  was  incorporated  June  17,  1823.  Thus  the 
South  Parish,  although  the  first  to  move  in  the  matter  was  left  with 
Titicut  to  retain  the  old  name.  And  now,  as  it  was  then  left,  it  re- 
mains, containing  twenty-eight  and  one-eighth  square  miles,  or  18,300 
acres,  bounded  by  East  and  West  Bridgewater  on  the  north,  Halifax

on  the  east,  Middleboro  on  the  south  and  Raynham  on  the  west. 
The  town  is  very  pleasantly  situated,  about  midway  between 
Boston  and  Fall  River,  ten  miles  from  Taunton  and  eighteen  miles 
Rom  Plymouth,  on  the  Old  Colony  and  Newport  Railway. 

The  first  settlements  in  this  town,  also  the  first  in  the  interior  of  the 
Old  Colony,  were  commenced  in  the  year  1050,  upon  the  Town  river, 
which  flows  from  Nippenieket  pond,  in  the  present  town  of  West 
Bridgewater,  principally  by  inhabitants  from  Duxbury.  House  lots 
of  six  acres  were  granted  these  first  settlers.  The  house  lots  were 
e<  guous,  and  the  settlement  compact,  to  serve  as  a protection  against 
the  Indians.  Among  the  names  of  these  first  settlers  we  find  those  of 
James  Keith,  the  first  minister,  Deacon  Samuel  Edson  from  Salem,  who 
built  the  first  mill  in  the  place,  in  about  1600,  and  Bassett  and  Mitchell 
who  were  among  the  forefathers.  The  adjoining  towns  of  Marshfield 
and  Taunton  were  also  represented  in  this  settlement.  Eroni  tlie  west 
the  town  grew  in  a southerly  direction  towards  the  great  pond  on  the 
road  to  Taunton,  with  which  place  the  people  had  considerable  inter- 
course. Until  within  a few  years  of  the  incorporation  of  the  North  pre- 
cinct, the  South  and  Titicut  parishes  were  most  populous,  later, 
there  was  a rapid  growth  in  the  northerly  part  of  the  town.  Now, 
the  present  town,  although  it  has  been  slowly  increasing  in  population, 
and  within  a few  years  'there  has  been  a rapid  increase  in  a 
northerly  direction  about  the  iron  works,  lias  fallen  considerably  be- 
hind the  other  Bridge  waters,  except  perhaps  the  West.  Its  own 
children  manifest  a strong  disposition  to  go  abroad  and  take  up  their 
abode  elsewhere,  while  .their  places  are  filled  by  a foreign  population  : 
still  there  yet  remain  descendants  bearing  the  names  of  those  ancient 
settleys,  Hayward,  Willis,  Bassett,  Washburn,  Ames,  Mitchell,  Keith 
and  Edson.  And  there  are  now  in  town,  besides  the  numerous  public 
buildings,  manufactories,  stores,  workshops,  &c.,  nearly  six  hundred 
dwelling  houses,  accommodating  four  thousand  one  hundred  and 
nine  fcy-six  inhabitants.  In  wealth,  it  yields  to  no  town  of  its  size  in 
the  state,  the  amount  of  property  assessed  during  the  past  year  being 
1,868,845  dollars. 

The  surface  of  the  town  is  generally  level,  the  only  high  ground,  and 
even  that  not  very  high,  is  Sprague’s  Hill,  in  the  eastern  part.  The  soil 
is  generally  fertile  and  for  the  most  part  in  a good  state  of  cultivation. 
The  people  are  very  industrious  and  for  a town  of  its  size  the  number 
of  idlers,  and  the  number  of  places  for  their  accommodation,  is  very 
sm^U^  Although  considerable  attention  .is  paid  to  farming,  yet  this  by 
no  means  constitutes  the  chief  employment.  Manufactures  of  various 
kinds  are  largely  carried  on.  In  the  old  town,  in  Titicut  parish,  were 
made,  at  the  commencement  of  the  revolution,  small  arm  and  cannons, 
probably  the  first  ever  made  in  the  country.  And  now  the  manufac-

t lire  of  iron  in  the  establishment  of  the  Bridgewater  Iron  Manufactur- 
ing Company,  incorporated  in  18T25,  [the  business  having1  been 
previously  carried  on  by  La/,  ell,  Caroy  & Co.,  and  La /ell  Perkins  & 
Co.,]  furnishing*  employment  for  hundreds  of  men  and  requiring  the 
aid  of  some  of  the  heaviest  machines  of  the  kind  in  the  country,  is  the 
most  extensive  of  any  in  the  state.  The  heaviest  work  in  the  world  is 
made  in  these  works.  Here  also  was  built  the  greater  part  of  the 
iron  work  for  many  of  those  “ Yankee  cheese  boxes,”  the  monitors. 
The  manufacture  of  copper  and  yellow  metal  is  also  carried  on  exten- 
sively by  this  corporation.  The  manufacture  of  cotton  gins  was  here 
commenced  very  early  and  is  now  largely  carried  on  in  the  establishments 
of  Pates,  Hyde  & Co.,  and  Joseph  E.  Carver.  Cotton  Gins  are  sent 
from  these  two  manufactories  to  nearly  all  parts  of  the  world.  Both 
of  them  are  to  be  represented  in  the  coming  World’s  Fair,  at  Paris. 
There  are  also  in  town  several  foundries,  [one  new  and  very  large  re- 
cently erected  by  Henry  Perkins],  a paper  mill,  box  and  saw  mills, 
and  two  brick-yards  furnishing  nearly  three  millions  of  bricks  in  a 
year  and  employing  about  fifty  men. 

Bridgewater  is  quite  noted  for  its  various  institutions  of  learning, 
and  as  in  former  times,  where  it  quite  early  in  its  history,  subscribed 
liberally  for  the  aid  of  the  college  at  Cambridge,  and  was  there  largely 
represented,  has  paid  great  attention  to  education,  both  public  and  pri- 
vate. The  first  corporate  action  for  the  establishment  of  schools  was 
taken  iu  1700,  when  Thomas  Martin  was  engaged  for  four  years,  to  keep 
a school  in  four  places  in  town,  each  year.  Its  academy,  established  as 
early  as  1790,  is  still  maintained  and  is  now  in  a most  flourishing  con- 
dition, under  the  able  tuition  of  Horace  Willard,  a graduate  of  Brown 
University.  This  time-honored  institution  has  received  and  sent  forth 
into  the  world  hundreds  of  pupils,  scattering  broadcast  its  influences 
throughout  the*  land.  Here  also  is  established  the  State  Normal 
School,  the  school  of  teachers.  This  institution  has  been  largely  pat- 
ronized, and  at  present,  under  the  charge  of  Albert  G.  Boyden,  attended 
by  seventy-five  pupils  from  various  parts  of  the  State,  gives  great  pro- 
mise for  the  future.  And  the  last  act  of  the  town,  when  it  abolished 
the  school  districts  and  established  the  town  system,  was  one  great  step 
towards  the  accomplishment  ox  that  much  desired  result,  a perfect  sys- 
tem of  public  education. 

The  first  meeting-house  in  the  old  town  was  built  as  early  as  1G63, 
in  what  is  now  West  Bridgewater,  and  the  first  within  the  limits  of 
the  present  town,  was  built  in  17 17.  Now  there  are  six  churches 
rious  parts  of  the  town,  each  largely  attended.  Here  also  was  Wilt, 
in  1853,  a State  Alms-House, * situated  in  the  southern  part  of  the  town. 
Part  of  this  is  now  being  changed  to  a Work-House. 

In  its  military  history,  Bridgewater  has  nobly  sustained  the  honors 
it  gained  in  its  infancy,  during  the  struggle  with  the  Indians,  (King

Philip’s  war.)  Then,  although  removed  from  their  friends,  situated  in 
the  midst  of  the  Indians’  country,  and  numbering*  not  more  than  fifty 
capable  of  bearing*  arms,  urged  by  every  possible  inducement  to  retire 
to  the  sea  shore,  they  still  resolutely  held  out.  They  were  the  first  to 
take  up  arms,  and  that,  too,  not  only  in  defence  of  themselves,  but  to 
aid  the  town  of  Salem.  The  meeting-house  was  converted  into  a fort- 
ress, by  means  of  palisadoes.  In  167 6,  the  Indi  ans,  about  three  hundred 
strong,  having  made  an  attack  upon  the  easterly  part  of  the  town, were 
repulsed  and  overcome  by  the  inhabitants  issuing  from  the  garrison. 
Nearly  all  the  houses  were  burned  on  the  borders  of  the  town.  Yet, 
notwithstanding  the  various  encounters  and  the  great  courage  and 
activity  of  the  people,  not  one  of  this  feeble  settlement  is  known  to 
have  been  killed.  In  the  revolution,  too,  it  stands  forth  as  patriotic 
and  as  true  to  liberty  as  any  of  its  neighbors,  bearing  its  full  propor- 
tion of  its  trials  and  burdens.  During  this  time,  the  male  population 
capable  of  bearing  arms,  did  not  exceed  one  thousand.  In  the  Conti- 
nential  service,  exclusive  of  the  Province  and  State  service,  during 
three  years  of  the  war,  it  furnished  four  hundred  and  twelve  men,  more 
than  three  thousand  dollars,  besides  contributions  of  various  supplies 
for  the  army.  Among  the  number  of  killed  are  the  names  of  Capt. 
J acob  Allen  and  Abner  Robinson,  who  were  killed  at  Saratoga,  at  the 
capture  of  Burgoyne,  in  1777. 

And  in  the  last  struggle  for  the  maintenance  of  those  principles  of 
liberty  and  justice,  in  the  establishing  of  which  it  had  taken  so  active 
a part,  it  stands  forth  in  all  the  strength  of  its  riper  years,  and  responds 
nobly  to  the  country’s  call,  furnishing  forty  men  more  than  were  re- 
quired to  fill  its  quota,  paying  out  freely  from  its  treasury  thousands 
of  dollars  and  sending  to  the  relief  of  its  soldiers,  provisions  and  sup- 
plies of  various  kinds  in  abundance,  withholding  nothing  even  to  the 
end  of  the  war.  Company  K.  of  the  third  Massachusetts  regiment  -was 
mainly  composed  of  men  from  this  town.  Also  a large  portion  of  this 
company  re-enlisted  in  the  Fifty-Fourth  regiment  and  there  did  good 
service  at  the  battles  of  the  Wilderness  and  before  Petersburg.  The 
town  has  sacrificed  some  of  its  best  men  upon  the  altar  of  its  country, 
and  we  have  but  to  mention  the  names  of : —

mHE  portion  of  Massachusetts  territory  now  called  Carver,  was  set- 
tied  about  the  year  1G38,  by  families  belonging  to  the  Colony  of 
New  Plymouth.  Towns  in  the  Old  Colony  were  formed  in  a peculiar 
manner;  when  a town  became  too  large  for  one  parish,  a second  was 
started,  and  in  due  course  of  time  a new  precinct  was  established ; this 
in  time  was  incorporated  by  the  General  Court  of  the  Colony,  on  eon- 
edition  that  a minister  should  be  supported.  Carver  was  therefor^br 
many  years  a constituent  part  of  the  old  t(5wn  of  Plymouth.  On  the 
4th  of  June,  1707,  the  precinct  in  which  Rev.  Isaac  Cushman,  alof 
of  the  venerable  Elder  of  the  Plymouth  Church,  had  gathered  a church, 
•and  over  which  he  was  ordained  in  1698,  was  incorporated  as  the  town 
•of  Plympton.  On  th'e  decease  of  Mr.  Cushman,  in  1732,  another  church 
was  formed  in  the  southern  part  of  fl^e  town,  and  Rev,  Othniel  Camp-

hell,  a native  of  Bridgewater,  and  a graduate  of  Harvard  College,  was 
ordained  over  it  in  tlie  year  1734.  Tliis  new  parish  became  the  South 
Precinct,  and  on  the  9th  of  June,  1790,  was  incorporated  by  the  Gen- 
eral Court  as  a town,  and  was  named  Carver,  a very  appropriate  name, 
in  honor  of  the  memory  of  the  first  Governor  of  the  Plymouth  Colony, 
and  very  judiciously,  as  this  very  excellent  man  left  no  deseendents  to 
carry  his  name  to  posterity. 

Carver  is  about  eight  miles  S.  S.  W.  of  Plymouth,  and  about  thirty- 
eight  S.  E.  from  Boston.  The  town  is  bounded  on  its  north  by  Plymp- 
ton  on  a line  of  about  four  miles ; east  by  Kingston,  one  and  a halt 
miles,  and  by  Plymouth  seven  miles ; S.  E.  four  miles  by  Plymouth;  and 
S.  W.  by  Wareham.  about  four  miles;  and  west  by  Middleboro,  about 
eight  miles. 

The  town  is  not  much  noted  for  its  rich  soil  and  productions,  the  chief 
growth  of  wood  being  pitgli  pine,  with  a proportion  of  red  and  black 
oak.  Nature,  however,  has  in  some  degree  compensated  for  this  neg- 
lect by  providing  a large  tract  of  about  seven  hundred  acres  of  valu- 
able white  ceder  swamp  in  the  centre  of  the  town.  It  is  well  supplied 
with  streams,  the  South  Meadow  anol  Weweantic  furnishing  part  of  its 
boundary  on  Middleboro  and  Wareham.  Wankonquag  Brook  on  the 
Plymouth  line,  and  Beaver  Dam  Brook  and  Cedar  Brook  meandering 
through  its  fields  and  forests.  Sampson’s  Pond,  near  which  is  the 
“ Charlotte  Furnace”  is  rich  with  iron  ore.  Mohootset  Pond  with  its 
brook,  wherg  is  the  ancient  “Pope’s  Point  Furnace,”  and  Crane  Brook 
Pond  where  was  the  “Federal  Furnace,”  which  was  erected  in  1794, 
are  evidences  of  the  well-watered  condition  of  the  town.  Besides  these 
are  Wenham,  Cooper’s,  Muddy,  John’s,  Vaughan’s,  Flax,  Clear,  and 
B^rett’s  Ponds.  The  town  is  well  supplied  with  necessary  mills,  and 
with  workshops  for  the  products  of  industry.  It  is  said  that  the  first 
cast-iron  tea-kettle  was  made  in  Carver,  not  far  from  1762 ; and  it  is 
certain  that  the  furnaces  have  ever  been  famous  for  their  hollow  iron 
ware. 

The  succession  of  ministers  of  the  old  Congregational  Church,  have 
been,  Othniel  Campbell,  1734-1743;  John  Howland,  1746-1804;  John 
Shaw,  1807-1815;  Luther  Wright,  1821-1825;  Plummer  Chase, 
1828-1835;  Paul  Jewett,  1836-1839 ; Jona.  King,  1839-1846;  Ebe- 
nezer  Gay,  1846-1851  ; Stillman  Pratt,  1851-1854;  William  C.  Whit- 
comb, who  afterwards  served  as  Chaplain  in  the  army,  where  he 
died:  Henry  L.  Chase,  (present  pastor.) 

other  churches  in  Carver,  the  Baptist,  at  the  Centre,  was  organ- 
ized in  1791.  Present  Pastor,  Win.  Leaeh.  Their  house  of  worship  is 
very  old,  having  been  occupied  one  or  more  Sabbaths  by  Whitfield. 
There  is  in  connection  with  the  Society  a fund  for  supporting  Con- 
gregational preaching.

The  Methodist  Church  at  the  South,  was  organized  in  1881,  and  is 
in  a flourishing  condition. 

The  Union  Society,  at  the  South,  was  organized  in  1858,  and  i.A  com- 
posed of  various  denominations.  They  have  a good  house  of  worship, 

When  the  town  was  incorporated  in  1790,  the  most  numerous  names 
of  the  inhabitants  were,  ShurtlefF,  Cobb,  Atwood,  Shaw,  Cole,  Hansom, 
Dunham,  Lucas, Vaughan,  Sherman,  Barrows,  Savory,  Hammond,  'fill- 
son,  Murdock,  Crocker,  and  Ellis ; at  the  same  time  there  were  about 
one  hundred  and  fifty  families,  which  included  eight  hundred  and 
forty-seven  persons,  twelve  of  whom  were  persons  of  color. 

rfhe  South  part  of  Carver,  was  for  a long  time  known  as  “ Samp- 
son’s Country,”  because  in  1705,  200  acres,  together  with  various 
special  privileges,  were  reserved  for  the  Sachem  and  his  wife. 

The  people  of  South  Carver  have  taken  great  pains  in  adorning  and 
embellishing  their  Cemetery,  until  there  are  few,  if  any,  more  beauti- 
ful spots  in  the  County.  The  first  burial  here  was  in  177(5.

DUXBUHY. 

r jMlIE  town  was  first  settled  about  the.  year  1632,  by  the  people  of 
JL  Plymouth,  although  it  is  probable,  according  to  the  records,  that 
there  were  some  settlers  in  Duxbury  before  this  period.  But  they  re- 
turned to  Plymouth  in  the  winter,  to  insure  their  better  attendance  at 
public  worship,  and  also,  to  protect  themselves  from  the  attacks  of 
the  Indians. 

The  town  was  incorporated  June  7th,  1037.  It  received  its  name, 
eut  of  respect  to  Captain  Miles  Standish,  from  Duxbury  Hall,  the  seat 
of  the  Standish  family  in  England.  Captain’s  Hill,  formed  a part  of 
an  early  grant  to  Captain  Standish,  who  settled  near  its  base.  The 
outlines  of  the  foundation  of  his  house  are  still  visible. 

The  first  Javern  license  was  granted  Francis  Sprague  in  1638.  In 
1678,  the  town  licensed  Mr.  Seabury  “to  sell  liquors  unto  such  sober 
minded  neighbours,  as  bee  shall  think  meet,  soe  as  hee  sell  not  lessc> 
then  the  quantitie  of  a gallon  at  a time  to  one  person,  and  not  in 
smaller  quantities  by  retaile  to  the  occasioning  of  drunkeness.” 

In  1643,  there  were  82  persons  capable  of  bearing  arms,  this  would 
show  that  the  population  was  about  400.  In  1800,  there  were  1664 
inhabitants. 

Among  the  earlier  settlers  of  Duxbury,  were  some  of  the  ablest  men 
in  the  Colony,  including  John  Alden,  Wm.  Brewster,  Thomas  Prence, 
George  Soule  and  Joshua  Pratt. 

Inseparably  connected  with  those  early  days  will  ever  remain  the 
story  of  the  “ Courtship  of  Miles  Standish,”  so  beautifully  sung  by 
Longfellow.  The  old  warrior  sent  his  fair- faced,  stripling  assistant, 
John  Alden,  to  plead  his  case  with  Priscilla  Mullins. 

“If  the  great  Captain  ol‘ Plymouth  is  so  very  eager  to  wed  me, 

Why  does  he  not  come  himself,  and  take  the  troifble  to  woo  me  ? 

If  I am  not  worth  the  wooing,  I surely  am  not  worth  the  winning !” 
************** 

Archly  the  maiden  smiled  and,  with  ej7es  overrunning  with  laughter, 

Said,  in  a tremulous  voice,  “Why  don’t  you  speak  for  yourself,  John  ?”* 

From  John  Alden,  descended  all  of  that  name  in  the  Old  Colony. 

Ralph  Partridge,  was  settled  over  the  Duxbury  Church,  in  1637. 
After  a forty  years,  ministry  he  died  at  a good  old  age,  and  w as  interred 
in  the  first  burying  ground,  on  Harden  Hill.  John  Holmes  was  his 
successor,  wdio  died  in  1675.  Ichabod  Wiswall  wag  settled  in  1676, 
died  in  1700.  John  Robinson,  settled  in  1702.  He  found  great  fault 
with^iis  snppDrt  and  was  dismissed,  on  this  account,  in  1738. 
Sa^mol  Yeasie  was  ordained  in  1739,  dismissed  1750.  Charles 
Turner,  1752-1775;  Zedekiah  Sanger,  1776-1786;  John  Ally n,  1788- 
1825,  after  which  date  he  had  for  colleague  Benj,  Kent,  until  his 
death  in  1833.  Rev.  Josiah  Moore,  the  present  pastor,  was  settled 
in  1834.

EAST  Bit  II)  GE  WAT  EE. 

BY  WILLIAM  ALLEN,  ESQ. 

ON  the  23d  of  March,  1649,  the  Indian  chief  Massasoit  deeded  to 
Miles  Standish,  Samuel  Nash,  and  Constant  Southworth,  Commis- 
sioners appointed  by  the  Colonial  government  at  Plymouth,  a tract 
of  land  which  now  includes  the  four  Bridgewaters,  a part  of  Abington, 
aad  also  of  Hanson,  for  7 coats,  a yard  and  a half  in  a coat,  9 hatchets, 
8^ioes,  20  knives,  4 moose-skins,  and  ten  yards  and  a half  of  cotton. 
This  contract  was  made  and  executed  on  a small  hill  in  East  Bridge- 
water,  a little  distance  south-east  of  where  the  E.  Carver  & Co.’s  Gin 
W orks  now  stand,  and  on  the  farm  now  owned  and  occupied  by  Mr. 
Thomas  Hewett.  This  territory  was  called  Satucket.

The  settlement  of  that  part  of  the  above  described  domain  which  is 
now  called  East  Bridgewater,  began  in  16G0,  when  Samuel  Allen,  jr., 
son  of  Samuel  Allen  of  Braintree,  emigrating  hither,  built  a house  a 
few  rods  from  whore  the  Bridgewater  Branch  of  the  Old  Colony  Rail- 
road crosses  Matfield  river.  The  next  settlors  were  Nicholas  Byram, 
Thomas  Whitman,  William  Brett,  jr.,  and  Robert  Latham.  These 
were  the  only  inhabitants  here  previous  to  1076,  the  time  of  King 
Phillip’s  war,  when  the  dwelling  houses  of  all  the  residents  were 
burned  by  the  Indians,  except  that  of  Nicholas  Byram,  which  stood  on 
the  spot  where  is  now  the  residence  of  Mr.  Jotliain  Hicks. 

On  the  14th  December,  1723,  the  east  end  of  the  North  Parish  of 
Bridgewater,  which  then  included  what  is  now  the  towns  of  West  and 
North  Bridgewater,  together  with  9 persons  of  the  South  Parish,  (now 
Bridgewater),  viz : Barnabas  Seab-ury,  Thomas  Latham,  Charles 
Latham,  Nicholas  Wade,  Nathaniel  Harden,  Thomas  Hooper,  William 
Conant,  Isaac  Lazell,  and  Joseph  Washburn,  was  made  by  the  General 
Court,  the  East  Parish  of  Bridgewater.  The  first  meeting-liouse  was 
built  before  the  parish  was  formed,  having  been  raised  March  14th, 
1720. 

The  church  was  gathered  Oct.  28th,  1724,  and  consisted  of  thirty- 
three  members,  twelve  male,  twenty-one  female.  On  the  same  day, 
Rev.  John  Angler,  a native  of  Watertown,  was  ordained  Pastor,  He 
died  April  14th,  1787,  aged  eighty-five  years,  and  in  the  sixty- third 
year  of  his  ministry.  His  son  Samuel  Angier,  was  settled  as  his  col- 
league, Dee.  23d,  1767,  and  succeeded  him  as  Pastor.  He  resigned 
his  office  March  25th,  1804,  and  died  Jan.  18th,  180.^  aged  sixty- two 
years.  The  next  Pastor,  Rev.  James  Elint,  was  ordained  1806,  and 
dismissed,  1821.  His  successors  have  been  Rev.  Benjamin  Fessenden, 
ordained  1821,  dismissed  1825  ; Rev.  John  A.  Williams,  ordained 
1826,  dismissed  1828;  Rev.  Eliphalet  P.  Crafts,  ordained  1828,  dis- 
missed 1836.  Rev.  Nathaniel  Whitman,  installed  1844,  dismissed 
1852;  Rev.  Joseph  H.  Phipps,  installed  1853,  dismissed  1861;  Rev. 
Silas  Farrington,  installed  1861,  dismissed  1864.  The  present  Pastor, 
Rev.  Francis  C.  Williams,  commenced  his  labors  here  1865. 

East  Bridgewater  was  incorporated  a town,  June  14th,  1823.  It 
is  25  miles  south  of  Boston,  and  17  from  Plymouth,  and  contains 
18  1-7  square  miles.  It  has  four  villages,  the  Center,  Joppa,  North- 
ville,  and  West  Crooks,  besides  several  other  clusters  of  dwelling 
houses,  which  might  perhaps  properly  be  called  villages.  There 
have  been  eight  religious  societies  within  the  limits  of  the  town,  in 
addition  to  the  First  Congregational,  already  mentioned,  viz : iflH 

The  Union  Congregational,  formed  1826. 

The  New  Jerusalem,  in  Jhppa  village,  formed  1831. 

Universalist,  formed  1834,  not  in  operation. 

Methodist,  (Protestant),  formed  about  1843,  not  in  operation.

PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


Trinitarian  Congregational,  formed  1849,  not  in  operation. 

First  Methodist  Episcopal  (in  North  ville),  formed  1849,  not  in  ope- 
ration. 

Second  Methodist  Episcopal  (Centre  Village),  formed  1857. 

Catholic,  formed  in  18G2. 

The  town  is  generally  rather  level,  but  is  well  watered  by  rivers  and 
brooks,  and  the  soil  is  favorable  for  agriculture.  There  is  a pond  in 
the  south-east  part  of  the  town  called  “Robin’s  Pond,”  about  half  a 
mile  wide,  with  a small  island  near  the  central  part,  which,  in  Sum- 
mer is  a resort  of  pleasure  parties.  There  are  several  small  rivers  in 
the  town,  the  principal  ones,  the  Satucket  in  the  south-easterly  part, 
and  the  Matfield  in  the  westerly,  unite  near  the  Bridgewater  line,  on 
the  southerly  side,  and  form  Taunton  river.  The  Satucket  is  formed 
by  a stream  passing  through  Monpon'set  Pond,  in  Halifax,  and  after- 
wards through  Robin’s  Pond,  and  then  uniting  with  Poor  Meadow 
river,  which  flows  through  Abington  and  a part  of  Hanson,  and  enters 
this  town  on  the  east  side,  and  with  Black  Brook.  The  Matfield,  is 
formed-  by  the  union  of  Salisbury  river,  which  rising  in  Stoughton,  and 
flowing  through  North  Bridgewater,  entprs  East  Bridgewater  on  the 
west  side ; Beaver  Brook,  which  rises  in  East  Randolph,  and  passing 
through  North  Bridgewater  enters  this  town  on  the  north-west,  and 
with  Snell  Meadow  Brook,  which  comes  from  Abington,  on  the  north 
side. 

This  town  has  been  famous  for  its  early  manufactures.  Hon.  Hugh 
Orr,  who  was  born  in  Scotland  in  1717,  came  to  reside  here  at  the  age 
of  twenty-one,  constructed  the  first  trip-hammer  in  this  part  of  Ame- 
rica, and  began  the  manufacture  of  scythes.  He  was  the  first  manu- 
facturer of  edge  tools  in  this  section.  About  1748,  he  made  five 
hundred  muskets  for  the  use  of  the  Province  of  Massachusetts.  Early 
in  the  Revolution  he  manufactured  and  furnished  for  the  aid  of  the 
Colonies,  in  their  struggles  against  the  oppressions  of  the  mother 
country,  a great  number  of  iron  cannon  and  several  of  brass.  These 
guns  were  cast  solid,  in  Titicut,  (the  first  of  the  kind  in  America,)  and 
then  taken  and  bored  out  at  Mr.  Orr’s  manufactory,  which  stood  on 
the  Matfield  river  a few  rods  from  his  house,  now  the  residence  of  one 
of  his  decendents,  Mr.  William  Vinton.  Here,  too,  under  the  super- 
vision of  Mr.  Orr,  were  made  the  first  machines  ever  used  in  America 
for  the  carding,  spinning  and  roping  of  cotton.  The  first  nails  ever 
made  by  machinery  in  this  country  were  manufactured  in  this  town. 
J|j^obably  the  first  nail  completely  cut  and  headed  by  machinery  at 
^rcx>peration  in  the  world,  was  made  by  the  late  Mr.  Samuel  Rogers,” 
of  this  town. 

To  the  inventive  genius  of  Hugh  Orr,  Samuel  Rogers,  and  Mel- 
ville Otis,  all  residents  of  East  Bridgewater,  the  civilized  world  is 
under  lasting  obligations.

In  1829,  there  were  sixteen  water  privileges,  on  nearly  all  of  which 
were  manufactories  of  tacks  or  nails.  The  present  number  of  mill- 
seats  is  eleven.*  In  only  one  of  these,  tacks  are  now  manufactured,  in 
another  nails.  The  forging  of  iron  is  carried  on  to  a considerable  ex- 
tent. The  chief  business  of  the  town  for  sevoral  years  past  has  been 
the  manufacture  of  boots  and  shoes. 

•The  town  paid  for  bounties  to  the  soldiers,  under  all  the  calls  for

HALIFAX. 


BY  NATHANIEL  MOKTON. 

f \ RAYWACKE  and  Granite  is  the  geological  formation  of  Halifax. 
V _T  Prof.  Hitchcock  says  of  the  former  that  “ it  is  capable  of  being 
made  some  of  the  best  land  in  the  State.” 

Halifax  is  located  near  the  center  of  the  county,  28  miles  from 
Boston,  and  12  miles  from  Plymouth  Road.  It  contains  11,285  acres  ; 
L700  of  it  water  and  about  200  swamp,  abounding  in  beds  of  peat 
frbni  2 to  10  feet  thick. 

It  was  here  in  1676,  that  Capt.  Benj.  Church  “captured  the  Mon- 
ponsetts  and  brought  them  in,  not  one  escaping.” 

According  to  tradition,  Mr.  Sturtevant  was  the  first  settler,  estab- 
lishing himself  near  the  residence  of  Thomas  Holmes. 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  niSTORY.

In  1733,  a house  of  worship  was  built.  This  "is  now  in  use  as  a 
Town  House.  Halifax  was  incorporated  July  4th,  1734,  and  was 
named  for  the  Earl  of  Halifax. 

John  Cotton,  a man  of  distinction,  and  author  of  the  “ History  of 
Plymouth  Church,”  was  first  pastor,  succeeded  by  Wm.  Patten,  in 
1757  ;.  Ephraim  Briggs,  1769-1801;  Abel  Richmond,  Eldridge  G. 
Howe,  Revs.  Howland,  Kimball  and  Brainard,  and  Wm.  A.  Forbes, 
present  pastor,  installed  in  1 866. 

The  people  of  Halifax  were  uncompromising  patriots.  Just  before 
the  Revolution,  a soldier  named  Taylor  deserted  from  the  British 
company  stationed  at  Marshfield  and  fled  to  Halifax,  to  the  house  of 
Mr.  Thomas  Drew.  Three  of  the  company  were  detailed  to  take  the 
deserter  back.  In  effecting  this,  a ritsc  de  guerre  was  resorted  to,  and 
one  of  their  number  was  sent  in  advance  to  pretend  that  he,  also,  had 
deserted,  hoping  to  detain  him,  until  his  two  comrades  in  arms  should 
arrive.  Mr.  Drew  saw  through  their  arts  and  advised  Taylor  to  flee 
for  his  life,  into  the  woods,  which  was  quickly  done.  When  the  other 
two  had  joined  their  comrade,  and  found  to  their  chagrin  that  the 
bird  had  flown,  they  become  exceedingly  exasperated.  They  then  went 
to  the  house  of  Noah  Thompson,  who  was  sick  on  his  bed,  and  threat- 
ened to  shoot  him,  with  their  pistols  cocked,  if  he  did  not  reveal  the 
hiding  place  of  the  deserter,  Taylor.  Thompson,  with  sublime  courage 
rose  up  in  bed  and  took  down  his  gun,  which  hung  above  his  head  on 
wooden  hooks  and  brought  it  to  his  shoulder,  while  the  fire  flashed 
from  his  eyes,  and  said : “You  are  dead  men,  or  leave  my  house.” 

They  probably  thought  “ discretion  the  better  part  of  valor”  and 
started  on  their  way  with  disappointed  hopes  to  join  their  company. 
In  the  meanwhile,  the  tidings  of  the  affair  flew  in  all  sections  like 
wild  fire,  and  by  the  time  they  had  got  to  the  meeting-house,  two 
minute  men,  Bradford  and  Bartlett,  belonging  to  a company  then  or- 
ganized in  expectancy  of  trouble  with  the  Mother  Country,  ordered 
them  to  stop  and  surrender,  but  their  guns  being  hors  du  combat , the 
British  soldiers  cocking  their  pistols,  ordered  the  minute-men  into  the 
road  and  marched  them  down  to  the  house  of  Daniel  Dunbar,  who 
was  a Tory,  and  placed  them  in  the  'house  as  prisoners.  It  was  hot 
more  than  an  hour  before  the  house  was  surrounded  by  the  whole 
company  of  minute  men,  and  rthe  surrender  of  their  comrades  de- 
manded, which  was  refused.  Upon  this  they  threatened  to  break  in 
and  take  them  by  force.  The  British  soldiers  retaliated  by  saying, 
that  if  they  did  so  they  would  instantly  kill  the  two  prisoners,  who  en- 
treated their  friends,  not  to  molest  them  as  they  felt  sure  the  threat 
would  be  executed.  Xt  was  finally  determined  upon  to  send  for  J osiah 
Sturtevant,  who  was  a Justice  of  Peace,  under  the  King,  and  he  de-  * 
cided  to  bind  the  prisoners,  Bradford  and  Bartlett,  over  to  the  court,  to 
be  tried  for  breaking  the  law  upon  the  king’s  highway.  Sturtevant

.subsequently,  was  driven  away,  shot  at,  and  died,  among  the  would- 
be  enslavers  of  his  country. 

June  7th,  1777,  the  town  voted  to  give  SI  50,  for  men  to  fill  the 
quota,  provided  they  enlisted  for  three  years,  or  during  the  war. 
Among  the  Revolutionary  soldiers,  was  a slave  owned  by  Caleb  Sturte- 
vant.  Among  the  “ Haligonians”  who  served  in  the  Continental 
army,  were  Nathaniel  Holmes,  James  Tillson,  Josiali  Thompson,  Prince 
Witherel,  Consider  Pratt,  Home  Sears,  Zebediah  Thompson,  Joshua 
Former,  Elisha  Faxon,  Joseph  Tillson,  Richard  Bosworth. 

In  1812,  the  town  furnished  an  entire  military  company,  which  was 
commanded  by. Capt.  Asa  Thompson,  popularly  known  as  the  “tall 
Captain,”  who  was  6 feet  6 inches  in  height,  and  it  is  said  that  people 
would  collect  around  South  Boston  Bridge,  to  see  him  march  his  com- 
pany over.  This  company  is  the  oldest  in  the  State,  and  was  chartered 
by  John  Hancock,  in  1792,  and  served  in  the  late  Rebellion.  It  is  at 
present  in  a flourishing  condition,  and  commanded  by  Capt.  Charles 
P.  Lyon.  It  will  long  be  remembered  by  the  people,  how  quickly  this 
organization  responded  to  the  call  of  President  Lincoln,  April  16th, 
1861;  for  which  it  was  complimented  by  the  Press  of  Boston. 

This  town  suffered  severely  in  the  late  war,  and  lost  22  men,  out  of 
a population  of  7 89.  Their  names  will  be  preserved  to  all  coming 
time,  on  a monument,  soon  to  be  erected  to  theiruneinory. 

On  the  5th  of  July,  1848,  by  fire,  the  manufacturing  interests,  of  the 
town  were  ruined.  In  the  conflagration,  1 woollen  mill,  and  3 houses, 
were  destroyed,  and  thus  about  50  males  and  females,  were  compelled 
to  seek  employment  elsewhere.*  This  was  the  greatest  misfortune  that 
ever  befell  this  town,  and  from  which  it  has  never  recovered. 

There  are  3 churches,  1 Orthodox,  1 Universalist,  1 Baptist,  and  150 
dwelling-houses.  Present  valuation,  $365,471.00.  One  fact  concern- 
ing the  longevity  of  the  citizens  is  worthy  of  mention.  The  average 
duration  of  life,  up  to  the  time  of  the  late  war,  was  54  years,  and  of 
those  who  died,  nearly  one-half  fell  victims  to  consumption. 

Perhaps  in  no  town  in  Plymouth  County,  is  wealth  so  equally  di- 
vided. But  two  paupers  are  maintained  at  public  expense.  This  is 
essentially  an  agricultural  community,  but  there  is  no  reason  why,  if 
the  resources  were  properly  developed  by  capital  and  enterprise,  that 
we  should  not  present  a better  spectacle  than  an  increase  in  population 
of  only  16  souls  for  the  period  of  36  years. 

Monponsett  Pond  has  always  been  a famous  place  of  resort  for  wild 
fowl.  In  1754,  Mr.  Drew,  built  a vessel  here  and  floated  it  down  the 
Winnetuxet  to  Newport. 

John  Thompson,  who  came  from  Wales  in  1622,  whose  lineal  issue 
to  the  eighth  generation  are  now  in  Halifax,  many  of  them  residing  on 
what  was  formerly  his  homestead,  built  a log  house  on  the  land  now 
owned  by  Ephraim  B.  Thompson,  which  was  burnt  by  the  Indians 
'during  Phillip’s  war.

Soon  after,  in  1077,  John  Thompson,  returnod  from  the  garrison  at 
Middleboro,  and  built  a frame  house,  (he  being  a carpenter),  eight 
rods  north  of  where  the  former  house  was  buYnt.  It  was  lined  w ith 
brick,  originally,  (with  loop  holes),  so  as  to  be  proof  against  musket 
bails.  This  house  was  taken  down  in  1838.  The  site  where  the  saw- 
pits,  in  which  the  boards  and  joist  were  sawed,  with  a whipsaw,  is 
now  extant  These  houses  were  then  in  Middleb.oro,  but  now,  within 
the  limits  of  Halifax. 

John  Thompson,  about  the  time  his  house  was  burnt,  was  commiss- 
ioned by  the  dor.  and  Council  at  Plymouth,  as  Lieutenant  Thus 
commissioned,  he  equipped  himself  with  a gun,  brass  pistol  and  sword. 
The  gun-stock  and  barrel,  is  7 feet  4 1-2  inches  ; the  length  of  the 
barrel  is  6 feet,  1 1-2  imebes;  calibre,  12  balls  to  the  lb. ; lock,  10 
inches  long;  whole  weight  of  the  gun,  20  lbs.,  12  ounces.  It  is  con- 
sidered quite  a muscular  feat  to  hold  it,  and  sight  at  arms  length. 
The  sword  is  3 1-2  feet  in  length.  These  two  have  descended  to 
Zadock  Thompson,  and  the  pistol  to  Ephraim  B.  Thompson. 

John  Thompson’s  customary  hour  of  rising  was  at  4 o’clock,  espec- 
ially on  Sabbath  morning.  The  breakfast  repast  must  be  closed, 
even  in  slimmer*,  on  or  before  the  rising  sun. 

Either  he  or  his  wife,  would  go  to  church  at  Plymouth  and  return, 
every  Sabbath,  a distance  of  13  miles.

HANOVER. 


SETTLED  in  1649,  Hanover  was  not  incorporated  until  1727. 

Nearly  all  its  territory  was  originally  a part  of  Scituate.  The 
town  was  named  in  honor  of  the  Duke  of  Hanover,  afterwards  King 
George  the  First.  The  first  settlement  was  at  the  Four  Corners,  and 
along  the  North  and  Indian  Head  rivers,  William  Baretow,  ship-wright, 
being  a pioneer.  The  outlines  of  his  cellar  are  still  visible.  His 
grand-son  Benjamin,  had  a family  of  twenty-one  children.  The  piers 
of  the  first  bridge  built  over  North  Fiver,  in  1662,  may  still  be  seen. 
Ship-building  was  commenced  here  as  early  as  1660,  by  the  Barstow 
family,  some  of  whom  afterwards  moved  to  Mattapoisett,  and  carried 
on  the  same  business.  Barstow’s  forge,  (now  Sylvester’s),  was  erected 
in  1720.  The  Curtis  Forge  was  erected  in  1704,  by  the  Burdens,  who 
came  from  Scotland. 

There  were  seven  Indian  nations  in  New  England.  The  Wam- 
panoags,  divided  into  32  tribes,  with  3000  warriors,  under  Massasoit,

occupied  south-eastern  Massachusetts.  The  Massachusetts,  with  3000 
warriors,  under  Chickalabut,  occupied  the  territory  from  Duxburymill 
to  Titicut,  thence  to  Nippenicket  Pond,  Bridgewater,  and  then  in  a 
straight  line  to  Whitney’s  Pond  in  Wrentham.  It  w as  from  the  latter 
Sachem  that  Scituate  and  Hanover  were  purchased,  in  1653.  Jos. 
Barstow’s  house,  in  1674,  was.  garrisoned  by  twelve  men.  Indian 
burying  grounds  existed,  on  Pine  Island  and  back  of  Assinippi  Hall. 

Religious  services  were  held  at  private  residences,  in  1727.  A 
building  48  by  38  feet,  was  erected  in  1728.  At  this  time  common 
schools  were  kept  in  private  houses. 

Benj.  Bass,  was  the  minister  of  the  First  Parish,  from  1728  till 
1756;  Sam’l.  Baldwin,  1756-1780  ; John  Miller,  1784-1805;  Calvin 
Chaddock,  1806-1818;  Seth  Chapin,  1819-1824;  followed  by  Ethan 
Smith,  Abel  G.  Duncan  and  Joseph  Freeman,  present  pastor. 

The  Episcopal  services  were  first  held  in  Scituate,  1725.  St.  Andrew’s 
Church  was  established  at  Hanover  “ Corners,”  in  1810.  Rectors, 
Joab  G.  Cooper,  1811-1816;  Calvin  Wokott,  1818-1834;  Samuel  G> 
Appleton,  1835-1838 ; Eleazer  A.  * Greenleaf,  1839-1841  ; Samuel 
Cutler,  present  incumbent. 

In  1812,  the  Universalist  Society,  one  of  the  first  of  the  order  in  the 
County,  was  incorporated.  H.  C.  Wood,  present  pastor. 

The  Baptist  Church  was  constituted  Feb.  17th,  1806.  Present 
paston,  Andrew  Reed. 

Rev.  James  Aiken  is  pastor  of  the  Second  Congregational  Church. 

Few  towns  in  the  state  can  show  a larger  proportion  of  pleasant, 
attractive,  country  residences  than  Hanover.  There  is  unmistakable 
evidence  that  the  previous  generation  was  one  of  thrift  and  success. 

In  1807,  the  first  Hanover  Academy  was  erected,  and  in  1852,  the 
present  beautiful  edifice. 

Hanover  soldiers  did  good  service  in  the  Revolution.  The  well- 
known  Artillery  Company  was  formed  in  1798. 

In  1754,  there  were  eight  male  and  nine  female  slaves  in  Hanover. 
Not  only  were  blacks,  but  Indians  held  in  bondage.  Tradition  sayrs 
Job  Tilden  raised  slaves  for  the  market.  Cuffee  Josselyn  a slave  of 
Col.  Joseph  Josselyn,  died  in  the  almshouse,  in  1831,  aged  103. 

David  Prouty  commenced  here,  the  manufacture  of  the  first  cast- 
iron  ploughs. 

The  burial  ground  at  the  Center,  is  the  oldest  in  town.  It  has  lately 
been  much  improved. 

The  new  rail  road,  shown  on  our  Country  map,  from  No.  Abington 
to  Hanover  Four  Comers,  was  commenced  in  1865.

1~T ANSON  was  incorporated  Fob,  2 2d,  1820,  and  was  formerly  the 
. West  Parish,”  of  the  town  of  Pembroke.  Its  size  is  compari- 
tively  small,  containing  an  area  of  only  97 30  acres,  with  a population 
of  1188,  according  to  the  last  census.  Its  local  early  history,  will, 
properly,  be  contained  in  the  history  of  Pembroke.  Like  all  other 
towns  in  Plymouth  Co.,  it  contains  many  relics  of  Indian  settlements, 
such  as  remains  of  old  orchards,  cellars,  &c.,  and  rude  implements  of 
war,  and  articles  for  domestic  use,  &c.  Nearly  all  its  territory  is  em- 
braced in  the  purchase  of  Major  Josiah  Winslow,  of  the  Indian  sachem, 
Josiah  Wampatucfc,  as  by  deed,  dated  July  9th,  1662,  known  as  the 
“ Major’s  Purchase.”  There  is  a reserve  made  in  said  deed,  of  1000 
acres  about  the  ponds  at  Mattakeset,  (lying  in  Pembroke  and  Hanson,) 
to  his  son  and  George  Wampy,  which  is  still  supposed,  ( a part  of  it  at 
least,)  to  belong  to  their  heirs,  if  any  remains.  Among  the  first  settlers 
of  Hanson,  was  a family  by  the  name  of  Bourne,  that  located  in  the 
south  part  of  this  town,  as-early  as  about  1725,  or  before,  as  the  name 
of  Josiah  Bourne  is  found  in  the  records  of  the  Proprietors  of  the 
“Major’s  Purchase,”  in  1732,  May  12th,  and  from  circumstances 
therein  mentioned,  he  must  have  resided  here  some  years  before.  The 
exact  spot  where  he  lived,  is  well  known,  and  traces  of  the  location 
yet  remain  to  mark  the  spot,  viz : old  apple  trees,  old  bricks,  &c.  In 
the  north  part  of  the  town,  a family  by  the  name  of  Thomas,  located, 
and  the  name  of  Edward  Thomas,  as  being  the  clerk  of  the  “ Proprie- 
tors,” is  found  in  their  book  of  records,  as  early  as  May  28th,  1759. 

Bev.  Gad  Hitchcock,  D.  D.,  a man  of  talents,  sociable,  friendly,  hos- 
pitable, and  somewhat  eccentric,  was  the  first  pastor,  ordained  in  1748, 
which  office  he  held  55  years. 

Bev.  George  Barstow  was  successor  and  colleague  with  Dr.  Hitch- 
cock, and  continued  the  pastoral  relation  eighteen  years,  and  died  in 
1821,  aged  51  years.  He  was  succeeded  by  the  Bev.  Mr.  Howland. 

The  Baptist  Church  was  organized  in  1812,  with  Bev.  Joseph  Tor- 
rey  as  first  pastor. 

The  well-known  tack  manufactory  of  E.  Y.  Perry  & Co.,  is  located  in 
4he  limits  of  Hanson,  although  the  post  office  address  is  South  Han- 
over. Luther  Howland,  also,  has  a similar  manufactory. 

The  “ High- top”  or  “ Summer  Sweeting”  apple-trees,  yield  now, 
as  they  did  in  the  earliest  days  of  the  Colony,  their  prolific  crop  of 
golden  fruit.

'Fhe  name  of  the  town,  was  one,,  out  of  many,  that  were  suggested, 
;uid  selected  by  vote.  It  has  no  particular  derivation.  Property  is  very 
equally  distributed  compared  with  many  towns  around.  We  have 
none  of  those  persons,  who  from  small  beginnings,  become  noted,  in 
a few  years,  as  rich  men,  but  each  one  makes  slowly  but  surely.  The 
town  is  very  evenly  settled. 

No  whole  company  was  raised  in  this  town,  during  the  Rebellion, 
but  a part  of  Go.  A,  3d  Reg’t,  went  out  to  Fortress  Monroe,  April,  lb, 
1861,  for  3 months,  and  again  to  Newbern,  N.  0.,  for  9 months,  Sept. 
23d,  1862.  Of  those,  all  safely  returned,  and  most  of  them  agai»  en- 
listed for  3 years. 

Hanson  raised  for  the  Union  service,  188  men;  6 for  one  hundred 
days;  14  for  three  months;  22  for  nine  months;  35  for  one  year,  and  1 13 
for  three  years,  at  an  expense  of  $19,502,  in  addition  to  generous  sup- 
plies through  benevolent  commissions.

Maj.  Gen.  Benjamin  Lincoln,  of  Revolutionary  fame,  was  born  in 
Hingham,  Jan.  23,  1733.  He  was  second  in  command,  of  the  army 
under  Gen.  Gates,  that  captured  Burgoyne’s  forces.  He  was  after- 
wards Secretary  of  War,  Lieutenant  Governor,  &e.,  and  died  in  the 
house  in  which  he  was  born,  in  1810. 

The  first  Engine  in  town,  was  purchased  in  1802,  and  was  located 
at  the  Centre.  It  was  private  property  and  owned  by  a company  of 
15  men.  “Precedent,”  was  its  name.  During  the  war  of  1812,  when 
fire  company  membership  exempted  men  from  the  draft,  the  proprie- 
tors made  money  out  of  it,  by  selling  rights  to  persons  liable  to  draft. 
Soon  after  this  engine  was  obtained,  in  the  same  year,  one  was  pur- 
chased at  the  lower  part  of  the  town.  The  Town  first  took  control  of 
the  engines  in  1819. 

The  soil  in  many  sections  of  Hingham,  is  very  fertile.  The  place  has 
long  been  noted  for  its  wooden  box  and  bucket  manufactories.  Among 
the  institutions  of  Hingham,  we  would  mention  its  Banks,  Insurance 
Company,  Cordage  Works,  Tassel  Factory,  Kail  Works,  Furnaces,  &c. 

In  1 805,  Hingham  had  ten  vessels  employed  in  the  mackerel  and 
cod  fisheries,  with  a tonnage  of  7 90  ; taking  8*,0o$  barrels  of  the  former. 
Three  small  crafts  also  engaged  in  the  coasting  trade. 

The  “Hingham  Journal”  is  a weekly  paper  established  more  than 
eighteen  years  ago.  It  is  published  by  Blossom  & Easterbrook. 

The  “Hingham  Agricultural  and  Horticultural  Society”  lias  been 
in  existence  about  nine  years,  and  has  held  eight  exhibitions.  Meet- 
ings for  discussions  are  held  every  month,  and  sometimes  oftener.  The 
Society  owns  an  Agricultural  Library,  and  lias  raised  about  $20,000, 
by  subscription,  and  is  about  buying  grounds  with  the  view  of  building 
a large  hall  for  its  use.  The  officers  are : — Hon  Albert  Fearing,  Pres- 
ident; Hon.  Solomon  Lincoln,  George  M.  Soule,  Charles  W.  Cushing, 
.Vice  Presidents ; DeWitt  C.  Bates,  Recording  Secretary ; Fearing 
Burr,  Corresponding  Secretary ; Joseph  H.  French,  Treasurer ; Lincoln 
Fearing,  Librarian;  Directors,  David  W hi  ton,  John  R.  Brewer,  Al- 
fred Loring,  Amasa  Whiting,  John  Stephenson,  John  Lincoln,  Bela 
Whiton,  William  Cushing,  George  Lincoln,  jr.,  William  B.  Johnson 
of  C^hasset,  Dexter  M.  Wileutt,  of  S.  Scituate,  Joseph  Totman  of 
Weymouth. 

The  First  Social  Library,  founded  in  1771,  now  contains  about  1800 
volumes,  kept  at  Centre  Hingham. 

The  Second  Social  library  was  organized  1773.  It  is  located  at 
Ford’s  Building,  North  st.,  and  contains  1300  volumes. 

During  the  summer  months,  one  or  more  steamers  constantly  ply 
between  Hingham,  Hull  and  Boston.  Indeed,  the  town  has  more  in- 
timate business  relations  with  Boston  than  with  Plymouth  County.

A IT  AS  incorporated  in  1644,  and  in  its  early  days  was  a place  of 
V V some  note. 

The  first  minister  settled  in  Hull,  it  is  supposed,  was  Mr.  Matthews. 
He  was  succeeded  by  Zachariah  Whitman,  settled  in  1670;  and 
Samual  Yeasie,  settled  in  1753,  dismissed  1763. 

It  is  the  smallest  town  territorially  in  the  State,  except  Newbury  - 
port,  and  the  smallest  in  population,  except  Gosnold.  It  is  located  oil 
the  peninsula^  of  Nantasket,  and  nearly  all  the  islands  in  Boston 
1) arbor  belong  to  this  town.  Yery  few  people  realize  how  short  a dis- 
tance it  is  from  Long  Wharf,  Boston,  to  Plymouth  County.  The  town 
is  formed  of  five  small  hills,  connected  by  very  narrow  necks  of  land. 
The  principal  settlement  is  on  Nantasket  head. 

Several  large  and  popular  summer  hotels,  among  them  the 
“Oregon”  and  the  “ Rockland  House,”  have  been  erected  here  within 
a few  years,  and  the  town  has  become  a popular  resort. 

For  many  years  the  vote  of  Hull  indicated  the  relative  strength  of 
political  parties,  in  Massachusetts  elections,  until  it  passed  into  a pro- 
yerb  : — “ As  goes  Hull,  so  goes  the  State.” 

Hull  did  her  whole  duty  in  the  war  for  the  preservation  o£  the 
Union,  raising  22  soldiers  and  2 sailors.  Three  men  were  lost  ill  ser- 
vice. Sergt.  Ansel  P.  Loring,  E,  47tli,  killed  on  duty  neflr  New  Or- 
leans, June  24th,  1863,  his  body  having  been  found  floating  in  the 
Mississippi,  with  shot  wounds  through  the  head ; Nathaniel  R.  Hooper, 
F,  20th,  killed  at  Fredericksburg,  Dec.  lltli,  1862;  and  John  M. 
Cleverly,  A,  3d  R.  I.  Cavalry,  at  Charity  Hospital,  New  Orleans,  of 
Chronic  Diarrhoea.

KINGSTON. 


BY  JiEV.  J 081  AH  PECK  HAM. 


IjlOR  move  than  a hundred  years,  Kingston  was  “The  North  End” 

J of  Plymouth.  Twice  it  narrowly  escaped  being  the  most  famous 
locality  of  the  Old  Colony.  The  day  after  the  company  from  the  May- 
flower first  landed,  a party  went,  some  by  land,  and  some  in  the  shal- 
lop, to  look  out  a more  desirable  place  for  settlement.  They  reported 
“a  great  liking  to  plant”  at  Jones’  River,  but  after  prayer  and  reflec- 
tion “the  most  voices”  fixed  upon  Plymouth.  In  March,  1635-6,  a 
project  was  set  on  foot,  and  was  earnestly  advocated  by  a viewing 
committee  of  the  Court,  consisting  of  some  of  the  chief  men  in  the  Col- 
ony, to  remove  from  both  Plymouth  and  Duxbury,  and  to  unite  in  a 
new  town. at  Jones’  River;  but  after  long  debating,  and  a reference  to 
the  two  churches  for  a final  decision,  the  matter  was  silently  dropped. 

Though  at  the  time  of  the  landing,  all  the  region  about  was  tempor- 
arily deserted  of  the  natives,  two  burial-grounds,  one  where  the  Pa- 
tuxet  House  now  stands,  and  the  other,  in  the  ridge  north  of  the  Ever- 
green Cemetery,  together  with  the  frequent  discovery  of  arrow-heads, 
mortars  and  hearth-stones,  show  that  Kingston  was  a favorite  resort, 
if  not  residence,  of  the  Indians.  The  last  one  of  the  tribe  dwelling 
here,  as  handed  down  by  the  “oldest  inhabitant,”  was  a woman, 
whose  wigwam  was  at  Blackwater,  and  who  was  famed  the  country 
around,  for  her  superior  cooking. 

The  earliest  road  from  Plymouth  to  Duxbury,  was  nearer  the  shore 
than  the  present  one,  crossing  Jones’  River  at  the  “Wading  Place,” 
near  the  Almshouse,  and  thence,  passing  over  Abraham’s  Hill,  through 
Stoney  Brook,  meeting  another  road  which  started  near  the  Plymouth 
line,  and  crossed  the  river,  at  its  mouth,  by  a ferry.  Later,  the  main, 
road  passed  by  a bridge  near  Mr.  Edward  Holmes’  fish-house.  The 
present  highway  and  bridge  were  opened  in  1708.  Both  the  ancient 
ferry  and  bridge  were  subjects  of  frequent  legislation.  At  one  time 
Capt.  Standish  was  ordered,  by  the  Court,  to  repair  the  bridge,  even 
if  he  had  to  press  men  into  the  service.  For  a time,  Gov.  Bradford 
had  his  residence  in*Stoney  Brook,  near  the  dwelling  of  the  late  Fran- 
cis Drew.  The  cellar  of  his  house  is  still  visible.  His  son,  Deputy 
Gov.  Bradford,  lived,  and  died  upon  the  same  spot.  A “High-Top 
Sweeting,”  the  last  tree  of  the  orchard,  set  out  by  the  son,  is  still 
standing  by  the  lane  leading  to  Dea.  Foster’s.  Mr.  Henry  Colman 
speaks  of  it  as  “planted  in  1669,  and  as  bearing  in  1838,  thirty  bush- 
els of  good  fruit.”  If  this  account  of  its  age  is  true,  it  bids  fair  soon 
to  enter  upon  its  third  century.  Joseph  Bradford,  another  son  of  the 
Governor,  settled  a little  south-east  of  the  Landing.  Isaac  Allerton, 
for  several  years  the  Governor’s  sole  Assistant,  and  afterwards  the  en-

terp  rising  agent  of  the  Pilgrims,  and  his  son-in-law,  "that  precious 
servant  of  God,”  Elder  Thomas  Cushman,  whose  wife  Mary,  was  the 
last  survivor  of  the  Mayflower  band,  lived  a few  rods  north-east  from 
the  house  of  “Grandfather  Cobb,”  who  died  in  1801,  aged  more  than 
107  years.  John  Howland  and  Elizabeth,  his  wife,  ended  their  pro- 
tracted pilgrimage,  at  the  Nook,  near  the  road  to  the  old  ferry.  Sam- 
uel Fuller,  the  “beloved  physician,”  and  the  deacon  of  the  church,  and 
Francis  Cooke,  the  progenitor  of  an  extensive  race  of  Cooks,  dwelt 
near  Smelt  Brook.  Francis  Billington,  the  discoverer  of  the  “Sea,'7 
has  left  his  name  to  the  rocks  in  the  bay  near  the  town  line,  and  Ed- 
ward Gray,  “the  merchant,”  who  came  some  years  later,  settled  a little 
to  the  north  of  where  his  descendant  and  namesake  now  resides.  Thus, 
if  Kingston  cannot  claim  to  be  a Pilgrim  town,  it  has  within  its  bor- 
ders many  Pilgrim  memorials. 

Deputy-Gov.  Bradford  was  a Major,  in  King  Philip7 s war.  The 
house  of  his  son  J ohn,  who  was  doubtless  in  tbe  service  with  him,  was 
at  the  Landing;  but,  for  the  protection  of  his  wife,  to  whom  he  had 
just  been  married,  he  temporarily  removed  to  the  guard-house,  at  Ply- 
mouth town.  One  day  as  he  was  returning  to  his  house,  with  several 
soldiers,  for  the  purpose  of  taking  some  of  the  goods  he  had  left,  he 
discovered  it  to  be  on  fire,  and  saw  an  Indian,  standing  on  tbe  brow 
of  Abraham’s  Hill,  stationed  as  a sentinal  to  warn  his  comrades  of  the 
approach  of  the  white  man,  waving  his  blanket  and  crying  “Chockway, 
Chockway,”  (the  white  men  are  coming)  ; but  so  intent  were  tbe  Indians 
on  plundering,  that  they  heeded  not  their  sentinel’s  cry,  and  were  not 
aware  of  their  danger,  till  Bradford  rushed  among  them.  They  in- 
stantly fled,  and  made  their  way  into  a dense  swamp  at  the  foot  of 
Abraham’s  Hill,  and  were  pursued  by  Bradford,  who  bred  at  one  of 
them,  and  supposed  him  killed,  as  he  saw  him  fall.  On  reaching  the 
spot  he  was  greatly  surprised  at  not  finding  the  body  of  his  enemy. 
He  was  at  a loss  how  to  account  for  this  circumstance,  till  after  the  war, 
when  an  Indian  made  the  fact  known  to  him  that  he  was  the  one  bred 
at,  giving  evidence  of  this  by  the  marks  of  the  bullet  shot  through  liis 
side,  and  declaring  that  he  had  crept  behind  some  logs  to  escape  the 
notice  of  his  pursuer.  After  the  war,  Mr.  Bradford  re-built  on  the 
same  spot,  and  the  house  is  now  known  as  the  Sampson  house,  in 
which  for  a long  time  was  preserved  his  Grandfather’s  manuscript  his- 
tory of  New  Plymouth ; but  which,  a short  time  before  his  death,  in 
1786,  he  loaned  to  Thomas  Prince,  who  kept  his  library  in  tbe  steeple 
of  the  Old  South  Church,  in  Boston.  The  manuscript,  with  other 
books,  was  carried  to  England,  during  the  Pevolutionary  war,  and 
lodged  in  the  Eulham  library,  where,  till  1855,  it  was  concealed  from 
the  public,  and  for  many  years  was  supposed  to  be  irrecoverably  lost. 
It  has  since  been  published  by  the  Mass.  Historical  Society,  and  is  a

most  authentic  and  valuable  contribution  to  the  history  of  the  first  set- 
tlement. « 

The  North  End  of  Plymouth,  was  incorporated  as  a precinct  in  1717, 
and  as  a town,  in  1726.  The  greater  convenience  in  the  worship  of 
(rod,  and  the  better  ordering  of  the  schools,  appear  to  be  the  reasons 
for  the  division.  During  the  war  of  Independence,  Kingston  was 
thoroughly  patriotic,  furnishing  its  quota  of  men,  paying  in  some  in- 
stances, for  less  than  six  months’  service,  of  a single  soldier,  more  than 
ton  thousand  dollars  of  the  currency  of  the  times.  Gen.  John  Thomas, 
who  eoin.naan.ded  at  Roxbury,  and  subsequently  succeeded  Gen.  Mont- 
gomery in  Canada,  where  he  died,  was  a prominent  citizen  of  this 
town,  as  was  also  Maj.  Seth  Drew,  who  was  an  officer  in  the  battles  of 
Trenton,  and  Monmouth,  and  at  the  capture  of  Burgoyne.  Gen.  Pe- 
leg  Wadsworth,  commanded  a company  of  minute  men  from  Kingston, 
.in  the  early  part  of  the  war. 

The  whole  number  of  men  furnished  in  the  late  war  of  the  Rebel- 
lion, by  this  town,  is  one  hundred  and  fifty-four.  The  following  have 
died  in  connection  with  the  service,  viz: — Wm.  O’Brien,  Thomas 
Mullen,  George  Sampson,  Melzor  A.  Foster,  Lieut.  Wm.  Holmes, 
Allyn  Holmes,  jr.,  Nathaniel  Washburn,  jr.,  Waldo  Peterson,  jGeorge 
D.  Beytes,  E.  Lyman  Richardson,  George  F.  Stetson,  Harvey  0.  Pratt, 
Edward  A.  Pratt,  also,  Ensign  Henry  L.  Ransom,  of  the  Navy. 

Kingston,  at  the  time  of  its  separation,  probably  contained  about 
-100  inhabitants.  By  the  census  of  1865,  the  population  was  1626, 
and  354  voters.  Upon  Jones’  River  and  its  branches,  there  are  at  the 
present  time,  eighteen  mills,  of  different  descriptions.  It  is  a pleas- 
antly located  and  healthy  town,  and  according  to  population,  is 
the  richest  in  the  county.  The  soil  is  mainly  of  the  diluvial,  or  drift 
formation;  or  as  Rev.  Mr.  Willis  says  “ a red  loam,  intermingled  with 
sand,  gravel,  and  round  stones  in  various  degrees.”  It  has  a basis  of 
granite  or  gneiss,  which  crops  out  both  in  valley  and  hill,  and  there 
are  occasionally  found  veins  of  volcanic  trap,  thrown  up  in  the  ledges, 
so  regular  in  their  structure  as  to  have  the  appearance  of  walls  of  ma- 
sonry. Specimens  of  this  may  be  seen  in  the  “cut”  on  the  Rail 
Road,  and  the  “Devil’s  St'airwav”  in  the  fishing  rocks  at  the  Nook. 

Kingston  lias  three  churches,  (Unitarian,  Baptist,  and  Trinitarian 
Oongregationalist),  a boarding  school  for  boys,  and  eight  public 
schools.  The  town  abolished  its  school  districts  in  1866,  and  voted  to 
erect  a High  School-house,  which  is  nearly  completed.  It  is  a two 
story  building,  containing  three  rooms  below  and  four  above,  together 
witlr  the  entries.  When  finished  and  occupied,  few  towns  will  have 
better  facilities  for  good  schools  than  Kingston.

I would  call  the  attention  of  manufacturers  to  the  superior  qualities  of  the  Champi- 
on machine  for  pegging  Boots  and  Shoes  of  every  description.  The  work  is  much 
better  and  stronger  than  hand  work,  excelling  in  beauty  by  the  manner  in  which  it 
finishes  off ; very  little  buffing  being  inquired,  as  there  is  no  indentation  inside  the 
line  of  pegs.  It  pegs  the  very  highest  and  most  crooked  shanks  as  readily  as  a flat  or 
straight  bottomed  boot  or  shoe,  and  needs  no  machine  for  leveling.  It  is  very  simple 
in  its  construction  and  easy  to  keep  in  order,  there  is  no  jar  like  awl  feed  machines, 
but  it  moves  steadily  like  a piece  of  cloth  on  a sewing  machine,  consequently  it  is  not 
tiresome  for  the  operator. 

I would  also  call  attention  to  the  Whittemare  & Bean  Improved  wax  thread 
Sewing  Machine,  which  surpasses  everything  of  the  kind  ever  produced,  for  the 
following  reasons,  viz  ; because  the  working  parts  are  much  more  simple  and  durable 
and  not  liable  to  get  out  of  order  or  need  repair,  and  require  but  half  the  power  of 
other  machines  to  run  them. 

The  feed  is  a new  and  superior  feature  and  assists  the  operator  very  much  in  his 
work,  being  independent  of  the  awl  and  needle. 

Our  self  adjusting  cut  off  saves  much  perplexity. 

The  manner  of  changing  to  different  grades  of  work  is  very  simple,  and  the  machine 
will  do  twice  the  work  of  any  other  in  use.

IAKEVILLE  was  incorporated  May  13th,  1853.  The  most  of  its 
..A  territory  was  embraced  in  tlie  West  Precinct  of  Middleboro. 
Its  area  is  supposed  to  be  about  19,000  acres,  over  4,000  of  which  is 
water.  The  chain  of  Ponds  or  Lakes,  parts  of  which  are  in  Middle- 
boro, Rochester  and  Freetown,  have  an  area  of  about  0,000  acres, 
being  by  far  the  largest  Lake  region  in  the  State.  They  give  to  many 
places  in  this  vicinity  line  natural  scenery,  and  have  a perceptible  in- 
fluence on  the  climate  of  the  locality,  especially  in  the  exemption  from 
early  autumnal  frosts.  Middleboro,  before  the  division,  .was  tlie 
largest  township  in  the  State,  having  a surface  of  nearly  100  square 
miles.  Its  large  territory  was  one  of  the  main  causes  of  tlie  separation 
of  Lakeville. 

The  borders  of  its  Ponds  were  famous  resorts  for  the  Indians.  Here 
was  a line  place  to  raise  tlieir  maize  and  beans ; to  chase  the  deer,  and 
catch  their  fish,  and  this  was  one  of  the  last  places  they  abandoned. 
At  “ Betty’s  Neck,”  on  the  south  side  of  Assawampsett,  quite  a num- 
ber of  Indians  lived  within  the  memory  of  the  present  generation  and 
there  is  some  doubt  whether  all  their  titles  to  land  are  extinguished. 

One  of  their  number,  Benjamin  Simonds,  is  especially  recollected  as 
a noble  specimen  of  his  race ; he  was  of  fine  physical  proportions, 
weighing  we  should  judge  about  200.  He  was  in  the  war  ol  the  Revo- 
lution, and  after  receiving  a pension  of  896  per  annum,  he  moved 
to  the  north  side  of  the  pond,  where  he  lived  at  a place  known  as 
“ Ben’s  Island.”  He  died  in  1836,  and  was  bulled  in  the  Cemetery, 
about  a mile  west  of  Lakeville  Depot,  where,  by  the  enterprise  of  one 
of  the  citizens,  a fitting  monument  marks  his  sepulchre. 

The  murder  of  Sausaman,  a friendly  and  Christian  Indian,  on  the 
Assawampsett,  hastened  Philip’s  war.  During  that  war,  the  famous 
Captain  Church  had  a severe  skirmish  with  the  Indians,  on  the  west 
side  of  the  same  pond,  resulting  in  their  flight.

PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


We  think  there  was  no  settlement  in  the  town  till  about  1700.  One 
of  the  name  of  Peirce,  came  from  Scituate  and  built  near  Myrickville, 
in  1705,  whose  decendants  are  very  numerous.  The  Nelsons  were  the 
first  white  settlers  on  Assawampsett  Neck,  in  1717;  the  South  worths  set- 
tled the  part  near  Middleboro;  Strowbridges,  Richmonds,  Canadys, 
florrs,  Sampsons  and  Pickenses,  were  early  comers  and  large  landhold- 
ers. 

There  are  in  Lakeville,  very  considerable  quarries  of  gra'nite,  that 
have  already  been  worked  quite  extensively. 

In  1688,  the  missionaries  of  the  Society  for  the  propagation  of  the 
Gospel  among  the  Indians,  reported:  “There  are  at  Assawampsit  and 
Quittaub  twenty  houses  and  eighty  persons.  John  Hiacoomes,  preach- 
er and  constant  schoolmaster.  Mr.  J oeelyn  preached  at  Assawampsit. 
At  Kehtehticut  are  forty  adults,  to  whom  Charles  Abram  preached.” 

The  first  church  was  formed,  (“The  Precinct,”)  in  1725.  Their  first 
house  was  built  a little  east  of  the  present  one.  Their  second  one  near 
the  present  site.  The  last,  was  built  in  1835.  The  succession  of  min- 
isters have  been  Benjamin  Ruggles,  Caleb  Turner,  Thomas  Crafts, 
John  Shaw,  Homer  Barrows,  Mr.  Bragg,  Calvin  Chapman,  Augustine 
Root,  G.  G.  Perkins,  and  the  present  pastor  James  W.  Ward.  The 
ministry  of  the  first  three,  covered  nearly  a century.  The  parish 
has  always  embraced  a part  of  Taunton.  The  Second  church,  was 
Baptist,  forjned  in  the  westerly  part  of  the  town,  in  1757.  Elder  John 
Hinds,  and  Elder  Simeon  Coombs,  each  served  many  years  as  pastors. 
There  were  times  when  large  congregations  were  gathered.  AfteT 
continuing  about  a century  it  became  extinct. 

In  that  vicinity,  a Freewill  Baptist  Church  was  formed  about  1828, 
through  the  labors  of  H.  N.  Loring.  Rev.  Mr.  Steere  preached  at  a 
more  recent  period.  It  is  now  extinct. 

A second  Baptist  Church  was  formed  about  1796.  They  built  a fine 
house  of  worship  on  the  west  shore  of  the  Assawampsett,  their  first 
pastor’s  name  was  Abbott,  we  believe,  after  which,  the  Rev.  E.  Briggs, 
held  that  relation  for  about  forty  years,  till  near  the  time  of  his  death. 

The  Christian  Church  was  formed  February,  1842.  Elders  Shurtleff, 
Bryant,  Tyler,  Chadwick,  and  J ackson,  have  been  pastors.  E.  W.  Bar- 
rows  is  present  pastor.  Their  house  is  in  the  westerly  part  of  the  town. 

Three  hundred  and  fifty  volume^,  the  nucleus  of  the  Lakeville  Li- 
brary, were  donated  to  his  native  to  wn,  by  Hugh  Montgomery  of  Bos- 
ton, in  1866. 

Lakeville  furnished  85  men  for  the  Union  Army,  and  6 for  the 
Navy.

ItY  REV.  E.  ALDEN,  Jit. 

A /T ARSH-FIELD  indicates  the  nature  of  a considerable  portion  o t 
1VJL  the  soil.  Its  three  rivers,  North,  (South,  and  Green’s  Harbor, 
popularly  termed  Cut,  are  navigable  t<>  some  extent.  (Some  small  ves- 
sels wero  built  in  those  days  when  ship-building  was  an  important 
business  on  the  South  Shore.  Its  streams  furnish  considerable  water- 
power. Two  Cotton  Factories  were  at  one  time  in  operation  on  the 
South  River.  Its  water-power  is  now  mostly  employed  in  box-board 
mills.  Agriculture  is  a leading  occupation  of  its  inhabitants.  The 
recent  successful  inauguration  of  an  Agricultural  Fair,  under  the  di- 
rection of  a Farmer’s  Club,  represents  and  promises  to  stimulate  this 
branch  of  industry.  Boots  and  shoes  are  made  to  some  extent  iri 
Marshfield,  though  until  recently,  mostly  for  manufacturers  out  of  town 
The  making  of  clothing  for  men  and  boys,  furnishes  employment 
for  a large  number  of  females. 

The  shore  of  Marshfield,  lias  always  been  a favorite  resort  for  sports- 
men and  for  health  and  recreation.  Brant  Rock  has  been  familiar  to 
the  people  of  the  back  towns  for  a century,  and  within  a few  years, 
Out  River  and  the  island  overlooking  Marshfield  Beach,  have  become 
no  less  so.  ' 

Marshfield  was  occupied  during  the  summer,  twelve  years  after  the 
landing  at  Plymouth.  The  first  church  was  organized  in  1632,  which 
may  therefore  be  regarded  as  the  date  of  the  settlement  of  the  town, 
which  was  made  in  its  south-west  part,  then  called  Green’s  Harbor, 
and  afterwards  Rexham.  The  town  was  incorporated  in  1641,  and 
the  Second,  or  North  Parish,  was  organized  in  1739.  The  Indian 
name  of  the  place  was  Missaucatucket. 

In  1658,  occurred  a death  by  lightning,  and  in  1666,  three  others 
from  the  same  cause  ; which  events  at  the  time  made  a deep  impres- 
sion both  in  the  community  and  abroad,  upon  a generation  with  whom 
divine  providence  was  a doctrine  of  lively  faith. 

Edward  Winslow,  was  the  leading  man  among  the  first  settlers. 
He  called  his  place  Oareswell,  in  memory  of  the  land  of  his  birth.  Of 
polished  manners,  aw  well  as  of  thorough  Puritan  principles,  Gov. 
Winslow,  who  married  for  his  second  wife,  (Susanna  (Fuller)  White, 
mother  of  Peregrine,  after  .some  years  in  the  service  of  the  Colony,  both 
in  the  Old  and  New  World,  -while  on  hi3  way  to  the  West  Indies, 
with  a commission  from  Cromwell,  was  lost  at  sea. 

For  several  generations  the  Winslow’s  were  a prominent  family. 
A house  built  about  1693,  still  standing,  is  familiar  to  the  public  by 
prints.  Josiah  Winslow,  son  of  Edward,  was  the  first  Gov.  of  Plymouth 
Colony,  born  in  the  country.  His  funeral  was  attended  with  public 
honors  and  military  display.

Gen.  John  Winslow,  noted  in  connection  with  the  removal  of  the 
Acadians,  commemorated  by  Longfellow,  was  of  this  family. 

The  ancient  Winslow  Burying  Ground,  contains  the  remains  of  the 
hrst  child  of  the  Pilgrims,  the  first  mother,  also  the  first  bride,  and  the 
first  native  Governor. 

Peregrine  White,  settled  near  the  confluence  of  North  and  South 
River,  and  lived  to  an  advanced  age.  May  22d,  1698,  in  his  78th 
year,  he  made  a profession  of  his  faith,  which  his  pastor  records  as  an 
illustration  of  Matt.  20  : 0,  7.  The  estate  has  continued  in  the  family 
until  recently.  An  ancient  house  stands  upon  it,  and  the  tamed  apple- 
tree  still  bears  fruit. 

John  Bourne,  .who  died  in  1859,  a man  of  quiet  manners  and  sterl- 
ing worth,  was  a soldier  of  the  Revolution,  and  lived  to  see  one  hun- 
dred years. 

Gen.  John  Thomas,  who  fortified  Dorchester  Heights,  was  a native 
of  Marshfield. 

The  most  distinguished  name  connected  with  Marshfield,  is  that  of 
Daniel  Webster.  He  came  for  recreation  to  the  place,  which  he  after- 
wards made  his  home,  in  1827,  and  became  a resident  of  the  town 
about  1832.  He  purchased  the  residence  erected  by  Nath.  Ray 
Thomas,  the  noted  royalist,  adjoining  the  Winslow  estate.  This  house 
he  re-modelled.  The  part  containing  the  Library,  was  designed  by 
his  daughter,  Julia.  The  grounds  he  enlarged,  the  Winslow  estate 
-comprising  a part  of  them.  By  setting  out  trees,  and  enriching  the 
soil,  he  changed  the  features  of  the  place  from  a sterile  waste  of  sandy 
hills,  to  a charming  landscape  of  fertility  and  beauty.  The  tomb  was 
built  by  himself,  in  tl^e  Winslow  Burying  Ground,  within  a lot  abut- 
ting on  hit  estate.  The  mouth  of  the  river  whence  he  went  out  in  the 
Bays,  on  his  favorite  fishing  excursions,  is  much  changed  since  his  day 
and  is  now  well-known  as  Cut  River. 

William  Carver,  grand  nephew  of  Gov.  Carver,  died  Oct.  7th,  1700, 
aged  nearly  102  years.  On  one  occasion  he  worked  in  the  field  with 
members  of  three  generations,  while  another  was  in  the  house  in  the 
cradle ; five  generations  living  at  one  time. 

Col.  Pletcher  Webster,  before  his  father’s  death,  had  a residence 
which  he  called  Careswell,  but  afterwards  occupied  the  Webster  man- 
sion. 

Though  in  the  Revolutionary  war  there  was  an  influential  Tory  ele- 
ment in  Marshfield,  giving  occasion  for  the  stationing  of  a company 
of  British  Regulars,  on  the  farm  now  associated  with  Webster,  the 
town  was  active  and  outspoken  on  the  patriotic  side.  In  the  recent 
struggle  to  put  down  the  slaveholders’  rebellion,  Marshfield  furnished 
for  the  Army  and  Navy,  in  1861,  for  3 months,  1 man;  1861,  for  3 
years,  43  men;  1862, .3  years,  26  men;  1862,  9 months,  33  men; 
1864,  3 years,  9 men;  1864,  1 year,  19  men;  1864, 100  days,  5 men  ;

MARIOS. 


BY  J.  BATCIIKLDER,  M.  1). 

MARION  was  incorporated  A fay  14th,  185*2.  Previous  to  this 
event  it  constituted  a part  of  Rochester,  and  was  called  Sippi- 
••au.  Its  corporate  name  was  selected  for  no  special  reason.  It  was 
-suggested  merely  for  its  euphony,  and  the  facility  of  hailing  vessels  at 
rsea  by  this  name,  this  last  circumstance  rendering  the  former  name 
objectionable.  At  various  times,  there  had  been  exhibited  some  sec- 
tional differences  between  the  two  precincts  of  the  town,  which,  in 
1*50,  (or  about  that  time),  culminated  in  the  repudiation,  by  the  Roch- 
ester precinct,  of  all  the  Sippican  candidates  for  town  officers. 

Marion  is  bounded  on  the  north  and  east,  by  Wareham,  Sippican  and 
Weweantit  rivers,  which  seperate  it  from  Wareliam,  and  Buzzard’s 
Bay;  on  the  south,  by  Buzzard’s  Bay,  and  Mattapoisett : on  the  west  bv 
Mattapoisett  and  Rochester.  It  is  about  four  miles  in  medium  length, 
and  breadth,  and  therefore  contains  about  sixteen  square  miles.  Its 
outline  is  very  irregular,  following,  to  a -considerable  extent,  the  ser- 
pentine course  of  river  and  sea-coaSt  It  is  almost  cleft  into  two  nearly 
equal  parts  by  Sippican  Harbor.  The  land  is  low,  level,  and  rocky. 
The  soil  is  a marine  deposit,  and  fertile,  but  requiring  great  expense 
and  labor  to  dear  it  of  rocks ; hence  but  a small  portion  is  under  cul- 
tivation. This  is  divided  into  small  lots  by  high  stone  fences.  Dense 
forests  of  white  pine  and  oak,  cover  nearly  four-fifths  of  the  town.  One 
source  of  industry  with  the  early  settlers  was  the  manufacture  of  tar, 
of  which  each  resident  was  allowed  by  the  proprietors,  to  make  ten 
barrels  from  the  undivided  forest,  and  if  he  made  more,  he  must  pay 
a tax  of  one  shilling  per  barrel  to  the  proprietors.  More  recently,  the 
manufacture  of  salt,  and  of  late,  box-boards,  and  fire-wood,  constitute 
the  principal  exports. 

The  harbor  is  safe  and  commodious,  and  sheltered  by  several  large 
islands.  The  channel,  as  far  as  opposite  the  upper  wharf  of  the  lower 
village,  contains  eleven  feet  of  water.  There  are  now  owned  in  this 
place,  four  whalemen,  (one  brig,  and  three  schooners),  and  two  schoon- 
ers engaged  in  the  cod  fisheries ; there  are  also  one  or  two  smaller  ves- 
sels engaged  in  the  coasting  business — aggregate  tonnage  7 50.  There 
are  five  wharves  in  the  lower  village,  and  two  in  the  upper.  Two  of 
the  former  are  not  now  in  Use.  The  imports  from  three  whalemen  and 
two  fishermen,  for  the  year  1860,  were,  for  the  former,  865,000,  for  the 
latter,  $12,000.  The  people  are  generally  mariners,  a smaller  portion 
mechanic's  and  farmers.  Formerly,  they  were  extensively  engaged  in 
southern  coasting,  and  many  accummulated  handsome  fortunes.  Now 
the  fisheries  ar&  the  chief  industrial  pursuit.  There  have  been  no  per- 
sons of  great  public  note  belonging  to  this  town.  The  citizens,  how-

ever,  have  generally  been  enterprising,  and  successful  in  business, 
many  of  tfiem  eminently  so.  Among  the  prominent  and  useful  citizens 
of  this  precinct,  were,  Seth  Hiller,  an  extensive  land-holder;  Charles 
and  George  Blankinship,  eminent  ship-builders  and  owners ; George  B . 
Nye,a  prominent  business  inen;  Stephen  Hammond,  an  eminent  mariner: 
I)r.  W.  N.  Ellis,  who,  for  nearly  thirty  years,  was  the  principal  medi- 
cal and  legal  adviser.  Many  of  the  clergymen  have  been  men  of  char- 
acter and  influence,  The  population  of  the  town  is  about  1000. 
chiefly  concentrated  in  two  very  pleasant  villages,  half'  a mile  apart. 
There  are  four  religious  societies,  one  Protestant,  Methodist,  Episcopal 
Methodist,  Universalist,  and  Congregationlist,  each  with  a neat  and 
commodious  house  of  worship.  There  is  one  hotel,  the  “ Bay  Yieu 
House,”  in  the  lower  village,  a boarding  house  in  the  upper,  and  an- 
other, called  the  “Marion  House,”  on  the  extremity  of  Great  Neck,  of  a 
capacity  to  accommodate  three  hundred  boarders.  All  of  these  public 
houses  will  accommodate  five  hundred,  and  they  are  full  to  repletion 
every  summer,  at  least  a part  of  the  time,  besides  several  private  houses 
owned  by  non-residents.  Many  private  families  also  receive  boarders 
The  are  five  stores,  and  one  Petroleum  Oil  Factory,  whose  permanent 
6tock  amounts  to  §6500,  and  when  in  operation  yields  an  income  of 
about  50  per  cent. 

The  salubrity  of  this  town  is  above  the  average  of  towns  in  Nev 
England. 

This  town  contributed  40  soldiers  for  the  war  of  the  Rebellion,  four 
of  whom  died  in  the  service,  and  one  since,  also  23  seamen,  three  of 
whom  became  officers.  There  are  evidences  of  a remarkable  change 
in  the  depth  of  water  in  the  upper  harbor.  Where  there  is  now  con- 
siderable depth  of  water,  during  low  ebbs  there  may  be  seen  large 
trunks  and  stumps  of  trees,  and  there  is  a tradition,  that  the  channel 
was  once  so  narrow,  that  a person  might  step  across  at  low  water  be- 
low the  wharves,  between  Black  Point  and  the  ship-yard.  The  dis- 
tance between  these  two  points  is  about  thirty  rods. 

The  territory  now  called  Marion,  the  greater  part  of  Rochester,  the 
westerly  part  of  Wareham,  and,  (in  many  instances),  Mattapoisett,  was 
called  Sippican,  or,  as  it  is  more  frequently  spelt  in  the  ancient  records, 
Sepecan.  It  belonged  to  the  territory  of  Massasoit,  and  afterwards,  of 
his  son  and  successor,  Philip  Metacomet,  sachem  of'  the  Wampanoags. 
In  1662,  Phillip  entered  into  an  agreement  with  the  English  not  to  dis- 
pose of  any  part  of  his  territory  without  their  consent.  In  1666,  lie 
confirmed  the  title  of  the  lauds  of  Sepecan  to  two  subordinate  chiefs, 
Watachpoo  and  Sampson ; with  the  provision  in  the  deed  correspond- 
* ing  with  the  above  agreement.  These  lauds  had  been  held  in  the  line 
of  Wataohpoo’s  ancestors,  for  at  least  six  generations.  On  the  24th 
day  of  Dec.,  1668,  Philip  gives  his  consent  that  Watachpoo  may  sell 
his  lands,  or  a portion  of  them,  to  the  English.  The  deed  of  his  sale 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


08 

is  not  recorded.  July  11th,  1607,  two  sachems  of  lepaconit  (probably 
Agawam  Neck  in  Wareliam),  sold  the  westerly  part  of  the  present 
town  of  Marion,  including  what  is  called  Charles’  Neck  to  an  Indian 
chief  named  Pompmunet,  alias  Charles  of  Ashimmit,  “ with  libertie 
of  Comanage  for  cattle  and  likewise  to  make  use  of  any  timber  for 
fencing  or  building  that  is  without  this  neck,  with  libertie  of  fishing  or 
fowling  or  whatever  priviledgo  is  belonging  thereunto  as  necessary.” 
The  consideration  was  eight  pounds — $26.67. 

The  northern  portion  of  Sepecan,  including  the  north-west  section 
of  Wareham,  and  nearly  the  whole  of  Rochester,  was  granted  to 
Thomas  Besbeek,  and  others,  Jan.  22d,  1638-9.  In  1649,  (June  6th,) 
u Libertie  is  granted  unto  the  townsmen  of  Plymouth,  to  make  use  of 
the  land  at  Sepecan  for  the  herding  and  keeping  of  cattle,  and  winter- 
ing of  them  there  as  they  shall  see  cause.”  This  section  included 
Great  and  Little  Necks,  and  the  vicinity  bordering  upon  the  sea-shore. 
F or  many  years  before  and  after  this  grant,  herdsmen,  with  their  herds, 
tenanted  temporary  habitations  erected  for  their  use,  where  the  rich 
pasture  lands  and  extensive  salt  marshes  afforded  ample  sustenance 
for  their  charge.  June  5th,  1651,  the  above  grant  was  confirmed,  and 
limited  to  the  citizens  of  Plymouth ; “ and  the  bounds  thereof  to  ex- 
tend itself  eight  miles  by  the  sea-side  and  four  miles  into  the  land.” 
July  2d,  1655.  “ At  this  Court  libertie  was  granted  to  the  town  ol 

Plymouth,  to  purchase  lands  of  the  Indians  at  Sepecan,  to  winter 
cattle  upon.”  June  3d,  1679.  An  Act  was  passed  preliminary  to 
the  sale  of  these  lands  to  certain  persons,  which  was  confirmed  at 
the  next  Session  of  fh.8  Court  in  July,  and  the  settlement  commenced 
in  1680.  The  first  house  appears  to  have  been  erected  by  Samuel 
Briggs,  who  built  about  one  fourth  of  a mile  north-west  of  the  resi- 
dence of  Abel  Griffith.  The  names  of  some  of  the  first  principal 
settlers,  as  given  by  Barber,  are : — Samuel  Arnold,  John  Hammond, 
Moses  Barlow,  Samuel  White,  Samuel  Hammond,  Johu  Wing,  Aaron 
Barlow,  Joseph  Hotey,  Jacob  Bumpus,  Joseph  Burgess,  John  Haskell, 
Sprague,  Abraham  Holmes,  Job  Winslow. 

^The  first  settlement  commenced  near  the  entrance  to  Little  Neck, 
and  soon  after  extended  to  Great  Neck,  and  towards  Rochester  center. 
Their  first  minister  was  Samuel  Shiverick,  from  1683  to  1687.  He 
was  succeeded  in  the  latter  year  by  Samuel  Arnold,  who  died  Feb. 
11th,  1707.  Timothy  Ruggles  was  settled  in  1710,  who  held  the  pas- 
torate 57  years.  The  church  was  organized  Oct.  13th,  1703.  The 
first  meeting-house  was  a building  constructed  for  a “ corn-house”  by 
Samuel  Briggs,  and  moved  onto  Little  Neck,  near  a huge  rock,  around 
which  the  Indians  used  to  perform  their  noisy  demon- worship,  some- 
times at  the  same  hour  when  the  Christian  worshippers  were  engaged 
in  their  service.  The  first  burial-place  was  laid  out,  according  to  their 


64 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY’.  * 


usual  custom,  in  the  rear  of  the  meeting-house.  The  first  person 
buried  there,  is  said  to  have  been  Eliza  Briggs,  aged  1*2  years.  The 
next  meeting-house  was  built  in  Rochester  Center,  not  far  from  1780. 
The  first  house  built  on  Great  Neck,  was  by  John  Allen,  near  the  head 
of  the  Cove,  between  Stephen  Allen’s  and  Mrs.  Bolles. 

The  first  house  in  the  lower  village,  was  built  by  John  Clark,  when 
the  store  of  J.  C.  Luce  stands,  about  1700. 

The  first  house  in  the  upper  village  was  built  by  John  Keen,  where 
W.  P.  Delano’s  house  stands.  It  was  swept  away  by  the  great  tide  in 
1815. 

The  Sepecan  Indians  do  not  appear  very  prominent  in  the  history 
of  Massachusetts.  They  were,  at  some  remote  period,  very  nume- 
rous, as  the  frequent  and  extensive  shell-heaps  indicate;  though  th< 
interior  tribes  contributed  largely  to  these  relics,  in  their  periodical 
excursions  to  the  sea-shore.  In  Aug.  1077,  while  King  Phillip’s  war 
was  raging,  the  Saconet  tribe,  near  the  eastern  shore  of  Narraganset 
Bay,,  was  detached  from  the  Confederacy  through  the  efforts  of  Cap- 
tain Church,  who  advised  queen  Awashanks  to  go  to  Sandwich  with 
her  tribe  and  arrange  terms  of  amity  with  the  governor  who  resided 
there.  Church,  impatient  at  their  delay,  set  out  to  find  their  camp.  He 
passed  through  Agawam  [Wareliam],  crossed  the  Weweantit  river, 
and  found* Awashanks  and  her  tribe  encamped  near  the  beach  at 
Great  Hill,  on  the  spot  where  the  “ Marion  House”  stands.  “ Some 
were  running  races  on  horseback  ; some  playing  at  foot-ball ; some  were 
catching  eel$  and  flat-fish  ; and  others  plunging  and  frolicking  in  the 
waves.”  The  gallant  queen  received  the  English  officer  with  the 
greatest  respect  and  cordiality  ; entertained  him  with  fried  eels,  bass, 
flat-fish,  and  shell-fish ; and  then,  around  a huge  bonfire  of  pine  knots, 
herself  and  warriors  pledged  their  allegiance  to  the  English,  and  thus 
sealed  the  fate  of  Philip.* 

The  list  of  Marion  men,  lost  in  service,  so  far  as  we  can  obtain  it,  is 
as  follows: — Jesse  L.  Swift,  C,  18th,  of  disease,  Dec.  1,  1804;  Nathan 
H.  Weeks,  C,  18th,  of  disease;  Richard  Gurney,  A,  29th,  killed; 
Benjamin  D.  Clifton,  A,  20th,  killed ; Andrew  T Pratt,  E,  ^d, 
killed ; Joseph  Davis,  9th,  N.  H.,  Peg.,  Co.  I,  died  in  prison. 

Note. — *See  Abbott’s  History  of  King  Phillip.  Abbott  calls  the  river  which  Cap- 
tain Church  crossed  to  reach  Awashank’s  camp,  Mattapoisett.  If  he  has  copied  this 
name  correctly,  it  is  to  be  recollected,  that,  at  this  early  period,  the  names  of  places, 
rivers,  &c.,  had  not  became  settled,  Many  instances  of  the  interchange  of  names 
from  ancient  records  might  be  quoted.  The  stream  which  bears  this  name  at  pre- 
sent, is  an  insignificant  stream,  near  the  western  limit  of  Mattapoisett,  ten  miles  be 
vond  the  Weweantit,  and  no  bluff  is  found  near  it  which  commands  “ a wide  prospect 
of  Buzzard’s  Bay.”  If  there  is  a spot  near  the  former  stream  elevated  enough  to 
command  a view  of  the  water,  only  a portion  of  what  is  called  Mattapoisett  Harbor 
could  be  seen,  a view  incomparably  inferior  to  that  from  Great  Hill.

MATT  A POISETT 


Was  incorporated  May  20,  1857.  Previous  to  that  time  it  had  been 
for  nearly  one  hundred  and  seventy-five  years,  a part  of  Rochester. 
The  first  town  meeting  was  held  in  Purrington  Hall,  June  20,  '1857. 
The  Indian  word  Mattapoisett  signified  a place  of  rest.  Mattapoisett 
was  formerly  justly  celebrated  for  its  extensive  ship-building  opera- 
tions. For  several  years  this  important  business  has  been  very  much 
depressed. 

The  following  is  a list  of  Mattapoisett  citizens  lost  in  the  war  of 
Rebellion  : — Zaccheus  M.  Barstow,  I),  3d  Reg.,  at  Newbern,  N.  C.,  Oct. 
10,  1862,  of  congestion  of  the  lungs.  John  T.  Barstow,  K,  1st  Reg., 
at  Washington,  Dec.  20,  ’62,  of  diarrhoea.  Edward  F.  Barlow,  E,

MIDDLE B OB  O. 


E TRACE  the  first  historical  narrative  we  havfj 
of  Middleboro,  hack  to  the  account  given  by 
Captain  Dernier,  who  visited  this  place  the  year 

me  here  to  restore 

Tisquantum  or  Squantum,  a kidnapped  Indian. 

rrhe  first  time  the  soil  of  Middleboro  was  ever  pressed  by  the  foot  of 
h white  man,  so  far  as  we  know,  was  in  1016.  A vessel  was  at  that 
time  wrecked  at  the  north-east  of  Cape  Cod.  and  from  it  a Frenchman 
escaped,  was  taken  captive  and  brought  to  Namasket.  Then  tall  pri- 
meval forests  waved  over  the  hills,  and  there  must  have  been  a native 
beauty  and  freshness  about  the  whole  scene. 

Here  stood  the  Indian  hamlet,  there  the  lake 

Spread  its  blue  sheet,  that  flashed  with  many  an  oarr 
Where  the  brown  otter  plunged  him  from  the  brake 
And  the  deer  drank ; as  the  light  gale  flew  o’er. 

The  twinkling  maize  field  rustled  on  the  shore  ” 

Then  the  original  lords  of  this  lair  heritage  roamed  in  conscious 
dignity  through  the  plains  and  valleys  of  Namasket.  Would  that  the 
French  sailor  had  left  us  a history  of  the.  three  eventful  years  of  his 
captivity,  coming  hither  as  he  did  before  the  blighting  influence  of 
civilization  had  been  experienced,  or  the  dusky  ranks  of  the  In- 
dians had  been  thinned  by  pestilence.  But  a sad  change  was  speedily 
manifest.  The  captive  must  have  witnessed  the  ravages  of  that  plague, 
which  swept  over  all  this  region  about  the  year  J617,  when  the  inhab-

itants  died  so  rapidly  that  there  were  not  enough  survivors  to  bury 
the  dead;  died  as  it  is  now  believed,  of  the  malignant  yellow  fever. 

Three  years  later,  Namasket  was  visited,  for  the  first  time,  by  an 
Englishman.  It  was  a lovely]spring  morning — the  birds  carolled  from 
the  tree  tops,  amid  expanding  leaves  and  fragrant  blossoms. 

But  a retrospective  glance  seems  necessary  in  order  to  an  under- 
standing of  this  visit.  In  1614,  the  famous  John  Smith,  having  charge 
of  two  vessels,  explored  the  whole  coast  of  New  England,  “from  Pe- 
nobscot to  Cape  Cod.”  Having  secured  40,000  codfish  and  1100  beaver 
skins,  he  returned  with  one  vessel  to  England.  The  other  was  left  in 
charge  with  Capt.  Hunt,  to  fit  himself  for  Spain  with  a load  of  dried 
fish.  Having  crossed  over  from  Cape  Ann  to  Cohasset  and  the  South 
Shore,  Hunt  enticed  20  natives  on  board  his  craft,  under  the  pretence 
of  trade,  and  confining  them  in  the  hold,  sailed  for  Malaga,  where 
they  were  sold  as  slaves.  Among  them  was  one  named  Squanto,  called 
also  Tisquantum,  a native,  it  is  said,  of  Patuxet,  or  Plymouth. 

After  remaining  in  bondage,  we  know  not  how  long,  he  is  said  to 
have  been  redeemed  by  Spanish  monks  and  sent  to  London.  Here 
he  was  shown  for  a wonder.  He  was  then  a goodly  man,  of  brave 
aspect,  stout  and  sober  in  demeanor,  and  could  speak  English  so  much 
as  to  say  to  those  who  came  to  see  and  to  wonder  at  him,  “Welcome, 
welcome.” 

Squanto  was  subsequently  sent  back  to  this  country  by  Sir  Ferdi- 
nando  Gorges,  in  an  exploring  vessel. 

In  May,  1619,  Capt.  Hermer,  commander  of  the  craft,  having 
searched  every  harbor  on  the  coast,  landed  at  Plymouth,  and  finding 
all  dead  there,  lie  says — “I  travelled  alongst  a day’s  journey  to  a place 
called  Nammasquyt , where  finding  inhabitants,  I dispatched  a messen- 
ger a day’s  journey  further  west,  to  Poconoket,  which  bordereth  on 
the  sea ; whence  came  to  see  me  two  kings,  attended  with  a guard  of 
50  armed  men,  who  being  well  satisfied,  with  that,  my  savage  and  I 
discoursed  unto  them,  being  desirous  of  novelty,  gave  me  content  in 
whatsoever  I demanded.  Here  I redeemed  a Frenchman,  who,  three 
years  since,  escaped  shipwreck  at  the  north-east  of  Cape  Cod.” 

Capt.  Dermer,  however,  came  near  losing  his  life  at  the  hand  of  the 
Sachem  Corbitant,  who  had  been  exasperated  by  the  treatment  some 
of  his  tribe  had  received  from  previous  white  visitors  to  the  coast. 

The  “26  men’s  purchase,”  made  of  the  Sachem  Wampatuck,  in 
1662,  and  confirmed  by  the  court  at  Plymouth  in  1686,  included  all  the 
land  bounded  by  the  Indian  path  on  the  south,  Tippacunnecut  and 
Hasnappit  Brooks  on  the  east,  Winnatuxet  Piver  on  the  north,  and 
Tetiquid  and  Nemasket  Pi  vers  on  the  west.  The  original  settlement 
seems  to  have  been  made  under  this  purchase,  but  many  others  soon 
followed  until  the  whole  town,  (and  more,)  was  clear  of  all  Indian

claims,  except  “Quittaub  and  part  of  Tetiquid,”  where  there  were  rem- 
nants of  tribes.”  The  town  was  incorporated  July  1,  1669. 

Purchases  continued  to  be  made  of  the  Namasket  Indians  during 
the  succeeding  ten  years,  even  after  the  grant  by  the  Court,  until  the 
settlers  became  the  proprietors  of  the  whole  territory,  except  Quittaub 
and  Tetiquid.  W e have  records  of  the  whole : some  of  them  are  from 
Wampatuck,  some  from  Metispaquin,  and  one  or  more  from  Philip, 
chief  sachem  of  the  country  of  Pokanawkot.  “The  26  men’s,  in  March 
1662;  “the  great  men’s,”  in  1663,;  “the  8 men’s,”  “the  Purchade,” 
in  1662,  July;  “the  major’s,  or  5 men’s,”  in  1663;  “the  Little  Lot- 
men’s,”  in  1664;  “Wood’s,”  in  1667  ; “Prince  and  Coombs,”  in  1668; 
and  the  “Twelve  men’s,”  in  1672;  “the  south  purchase,”  in  1673; 
“the  16  shilling,”  in  1695,  and  several  small  tracts  and  gores  not  named 
by  any  title. 

In  1675,  the  town  having  been  settled,  and  a mill  and  some  twenty 
or  thirty  houses  having  been  built,  and  “Philip’s  War”  having  brok- 
en out,  the  whole  town  was  broken  up  and  the  mill  and  houses  were 
all  burnt. 

In  1677  the  settlement  began  to  be  renewed,  but  the  town  was  not 
fully  organized  until  1680. 

In  1680,  an  Indian  war  having  broken  out  in  Maine,  the  town  was 
ordered  to  send  two  men  to  the  service  by  the  Council  of  War,  and 
John  Thompson  and  James  Soule  were  impressed  for  the  service  ; but 
they  refused  to  attend  the  service,  and  were  sentenced  to  pay  four 
pounds  each  in  money  into  the  treasury  of  the  town  for  their  use,  or 
to  be  imprisoned  until  they  could  pay  the  same  with  the  fees. 

In  1690  the  population  of  the  town  was  two  hundred. 

A considerable  accession  seems  to  have  been  made  to  our  popula- 
tion just  before  or  about  the  year  1690,  one  of  the  consequences  of 
the  prosecutions  for  witchcraft  in  the  county  of  Essex,  Mass.  As  no- 
body was  safe,  many  fled  into  the  Plymouth  Colony,  then  a separate 
government,  and  where  no  witch  was  prosecuted,  no  Baptist  whipped, 
no  Quaker  hanged  ; all  the  principles  of  the  Pilgrims  being  opposed 
to  things  of  this  kind.  The  families  of  Thomas,  Bennett,  Smith,  Morse 
and  several  others  came  in  at  this  time  to  avoid  these  witch  evils. 
There  were  two  brothers  by  the  name  of  Thomas,  young  men,  who 
were  drawn  to  serve  on  a witch  jury,  at  Salem.  They  did  not  believe 
in  witches,  but  knew  if  they  expressed  their  disbelief,  they  would  suf- 
fer persecution.  They  fled  to  this  town,  one  settling  on  the  Pond, 
and  the  other  on  the  Piver — the  descendants  of  the  two  families  tak- 
ing the  names  of  the  “Pond,”  and  “River”  Thomases. 

In  1691  Plymouth  was  annexed  by  royal  charter,  to  the  colony  of 
Massachusetts,  much  to  their  dissatisfaction,  and  the  town,  for  a long 
series  of  years,  sent  no  Deputies  to  Boston.

In  1776,  the  population  of  Middleboro  was  4,479.  The  next  winter, 
the  males  above  sixteen  years  of  age  were  1066,  embracing  five  In- 
dians and.  eight  negroes.  In  1791  there  were  but  4526,  being  an  in- 
crease of  47  in  15  years,  showing  an  immense  emigration.  A large 
portion  of  the  towns  of  New  Salem  and  Shutesbury,  Mass.,  and  Wood- 
stock,  Vt.,  emigrated  from  Middleboro. 

The  different  portions  of  Middleboro  still  bear  some  of  the  significant 
Indian  names — Titieut  signifies  the  place  of  the  great  river.  Eliot, 
an  his  Indian  Bible,  uses,  it  is  said,  the  same  word  in  translating  the 
great  river  Euphrates. 

Namasket,  a compound  of  Namusk,  or  as  the  Indian  Bible  has  it, 
Namosog,  and  et,  signifies  the  place  of  fish. 

Assowamset  signifies  the  place  of  white  stones,  and  is  expressive  of 
the  quartz  locality  in  that  vicinity. 

Of  the  names,  Namasket  seems  to  have  been  the  most  comprehensive^ 
and  is  sometimes  used  to  embrace  a large  portion  of  the  territory  of 
Middleboro;  as  when  the  early  writers  speak  of  the  “Kingdom  of  Na- 
rnaskot,”  in  distinction  from  the  ■‘‘little  town  of  Namasket.” 

That  Middleboro  was  onee  densely  populated  with  savages,  is  evinced 
by  the  following  considerations  : — 

The  feet  that  Taunton  and.  Namasket  rivers  swarmed  with  bass, 
shad,  and  herrings  ; the  brooks  emptying  into  them  with  delicious 
trout,  and  all  the  great  ponds  with  white  perch  and  pickerel;  while 
the  deer.,  moose,  wolves,  bears,  foxes,  and  wild  fowl,  filled  these  for- 
rests,  served  to  make  it  an  inviting  residence  for  the  red  man. 

That  this  was  the  stronghold  of  the  Indians  is  evinced  by  the  fact 
that  Middleboro  was  not  settled  by  the  ivhites  till  40  years  after  the 
landing  of  the  Pilgrims  at  Plymouth,  and  was  not  organized  into  a 
town  till  years  after  Bridgewater  and  Taunton,  and  Sandwich,  the  lat- 
ter including  Wareham  and  Rochester,  had  been  incorporated.  The 
crowded  state  of  the  Indian  cemeteries  demonstrate  the  fact,  that  Na- 
masket once  teemed  with  multitudes  of  savages.  In  1827,  while  dig- 
ging down  a small  knoll,  on  the  premises  of  Maj.  John  Shaw,  in  the 
village,  more  than  eighty  Indian  skeletons  were  removed. 

Middleboro  constituted  the  occasional  residence  of  the  principal 
chiefs  of  the  New  England  tribes.  Here  Massasoit,  and  Gorbitant  the 
proud  sachem  of  his  tribe  were  accustomed  to  resort  with  their 
chosen  followers,  to  pass  a portion  of  the  hunting  and  fishing  season. 

At  Titieut,  dwelt  the  family  of  the  great  Chicataubut,  whose  sway 
extended  to  Neponset,  where  also  he  had  a residence.  His  son,  Wam- 
patuck,  sachem  of  the  Monponsets,  had  an  interest  in  this  territory. 

On  the  Assowamset  Neck  lived  the  mighty  Tispaquin,  surrounded 
with  his  290  braves,  the  subjugation  of  whose  tribe  closed  up  the  ter- 
rible war  of  King  Philip  in  this  vicinity.

The  Indians  cultured  the  Indian  corn  in  this  vicinity  in  the  follow- 
ing manner.  Having  tied  the  shoulder  blade  of  a moose,  or  fastened 
a large  clamshell  to  a stick,  they  dug  small  holes  in  the  earth,  four 
feet  apart  and  placed  therein  a few  herrings  for  manure.  They  then 
dropped  in  four  or  five  elevels  of  corn  and  covered  them  up  with  the 
same  rude  instrument. 

uWha!  sort  of  a hand  should  we  make  at  farming  with  only  the 
means  of  these  settlers.  True,  they  had  fish  and  needed  no  other  man- 
ure. But  as  to  oxen  and  plows,  they  had  to  dig  for  the  want  of  them, 
and  as  for  shovels,  there  was  not  an  iron  shovel  in  town  till  within  the 
age  of  a very  elderly  man.  now  alive  among  us,  and  if  they  had  a hoe 
they  got  it  from  England.  Such  a thing  as  digging  and  stoning  a 
well  was  not  so  much  as  thought  over.  Their  wooden  shovels  would 
perform  no  such  service.  All  their  houses  must  he  built  hard  by  some 
living  spring.  The  springs  and  seats  of  their  houses  are  many,  if  not 
all  of  them,  know  known  and  apparent.’* 

Henry  Wood  and  Ephraim  Tinkham  were  two  men  who  erected 
the  first  dwelling-houses  at  Namasket ; Wood  upon  the  Gen.  Wash- 
burn farm,  and  Tinkham  upon  the  Ichabod  Wood  place. 

In  1675,  the  following  are  the  names  of  those  who  were  house- 
holders, and  who  were  driven  back  to  Plymouth  by  the  Indians: — 
John  Thompson,  Isaac  Howland,  Francis  Coombs,  Samuel  Fuller, 
John  Morton,  Nath’l  South  worth,  Ephraim  Tinkham,  Henry  Wood, 
William  Nelson,  David  Thomas,  John  Cobb,  Jabez  Warren,  Ed- 
ward Bump,  Moses  Simmons,  Samuel  Barrows,  Samuel  Eaton,  Fran- 
cis Billington,  George  Soule,  Obadiah  Eddy,  Samuel  .Pratt,  George 
Vaughan,  John  Shaw,  Jacob  Thompson,  Francis  Miller,  John  Holmes 
and  John  Alden. 

The  first  meeting  after  the  war,  (the  record  of  which  is  the  first  we 
have,)  was  in  June,  1677,  when  they  lament  the  loss  of  their  records, 
and  resolve  upon  the  re-possession  of  their  estates.  The  same  fami- 
lies seem  to  have  returned,  attended  by  some  others,  of  whom  are  the 
following:  William  Bartlett,  John  Haskell,  Giles  Bicard,  Anthony 
Snow,  Henry  Warren,  Jonathan  Dunham,  John  Miller T David  Wood,, 
Benjamin  Wood,  Samuel  Eddy,  Zachariah  Eddy,  Jonathan  Wood, 
Gershom  Cobb,  William  Cushman. 

Fortunately  but  one  man  was  killed  from  Middlohoro,  in  King  Phil- 
ip's war.  His  name  was  Bobert  Dawson. 

Until  within  125  years  there  were  very  few  neat  cattle  and  lew  hors- 
es ; and  no  grass  except  woods-grass  and  fresh  meadow  grass,  and  no 
vehicle  on  wheels  except  carts — not  a wagon  for  ox  or  horse.  Easy 
and  warm  spots  of  land  were  selected  for  their  corn,  and  as  for  pota- 
toes, it  is  not  150  years  since  they  were  first  known  among  us. 

In  the  Indian  burying  ground  on  Assowainset  Neck,  located  between

the  Rochester  road  and  Little  Qmittecus,  are  a number  of  graves  with 
rough  headstones.  There  are  two,  with  regular  head  and  foot  stones 
of  slate,  with  the  following  inscriptions. 

“To  the  memory  of  Lidia  Squeen,  who  died  in  1811,  age  7’2.

The  other  was  erected  “to  the  memory  of  Jean  Squeen,  who  died 
April  13th,  1794,  in  the  23d  year  of  her  age.  Also  of  Benjamin,  who 
died  at  sea,  April  22d,  1799,  in  his  20th  year,  children  ofLylia  Squeen, 
a native.” 

EPITAPH. 

When  Earth  was  made  and  time  began, 

Death  was  decreed  the  fate  of  man. 

In  1710,  July  19,  the  West  Precinct  was  incorporated,  being  nearly 
the  same  territory  known  as  Lakeville,  including  a part  of  Taunton. 

In  17 13,  the  parish  of  Titicut  was  incorporated,  and  included  all 
that  part  of  Middleboro,  west  of  Purchade  Brook,  (with  the  exception 
of  a few  families,)  and  northerly  of  Trout  Brook,  including  a part  of 
Bridgewater. 

In  1783  the  parish  of  North  Rochester  was  incorporated,  and  includ- 
ed all  that  part  of  Middleboro  south  of  a line  from  Po^ksha  Pond,  due 
east  to  the  town  of  Carver,  with  a part  of  Rochester  and  a part  of 
Freetown. 

The  Herring  question  has  always  been  an  exciting  one  at  the  an- 
nual town  meetings.  In  170o,  (>d  a load  was  the  price  of  fish.  The 
size  of  the  loads  began  to  increase,  owing  to  men’s  selfishness,  until  in 
1725,  it  was  voted  that  8,000  fish  be  a load.  For  many  years  the 
herring  privilege  was  sold  by  the  Selectmen,  at  public  vendue,  to  the 
highest  bidder,  and  these  officers  were  authorized  to  furnish  liquor  at 
the  expense  of  the  town. 

Middleboro  always  took  great  interest  in  military  matters,  having 
furnished  at  different  times,  of  commissioned  officers  for  the  militia 
service,  enough  to  form  a regiment.  At  one  time  there  were  in  town 
nine  infantry  companies  and  one  cavalry. 

The  first  mill  in  town  was  for  grining  corn,  and  was  located  near 
the  present  site  of  the  Star  Mills.  Two  sawmills  were  early  built  on 
Bartlett’s  Brook,  but  we  have  no  account  of  any  manufacturing  until 
1734,  when  a slitting  mill  w;n  built,  by  leave  of  the  town,  oa  N mar- 
ket River,  at  Oliver’s  Works.  Strong  objections  were  made  to  the 
work,  on  account  of  its  apprehended  detriment  to  the  fishery — her- 
rings being  considered  as  indispensable  to  the  raising  of  corn,  as  well 
as  an  article  of  food. 

The  best  farming  land  in  town  is  in  the  Titicut  part.  At  present

a large  number  of  citizens  are  employed  in  the  shoe  business,  Bay 
State  Straw  Works,  Star  Woolen  Mills,  and  the  various  box  and  saw 
mills  in  different  parts  of  the  town. 

Of  antiquities,  the  most  interesting  is  the  Old  Morton  House,  a part 
of  which  was  erected  about  200  years  ago.  For  some  years  it  served 
as  a fort,  to  protect  the  settlers  from  the  Indians,  having  been  provid- 
ed with  port  holes. 

In  1 833-4,  the  first  newspaper  was  published  in  Middleboro.  The 
name  was  the  “Old  Colony  Democrat,”  Benj.  Drew,  editor  and  printer. 
The  office  was  soon  removed  from  the  place.  The  “Namasket  Ga- 
zette” was  commenced  Oct,  7,  1852,  by  Samuel  P.  Brown.  In  1854, 
the  establishment  was  purchased  by  Rev.  Stillman  Pratt,  and  the 
name  changed  to  the  “Middleboro  Gazette  and  Old  Colony  Adver- 
tiser.” Since  the  death  of  Mr.  Pratt  senior,  Sept.  1,  1862,  the  paper 
has  been  published  by  his  son,  Stillman  B.  Pratt. 

Of  distinguished  painters,  Middleboro  has  produced  Cephas  Thomp- 
son, and  his  two  sons,  Cephas  G.  and  Jerome  B.  Thompson ; of  musi- 
cians, Professor  Oliver  Shaw,  of  Providence,  has  been  perhaps  the 
most  celebrated ; of  lawyers,  the  first  rank  has  been  accorded  to  Zach- 
ariah  Eddy  ; while  perhaps  her  most  generous  and  wealthy  merchant 
has  been  Enoch  Pratt,  of  Baltimore,  who  has  so  munificently  endowed 
.the  Pratt  Free  School,  at  Titicut. 

Deborah  Sampson,  the  well  known  female  warrior  of  the  Revolu- 
tion, enlisted  from  this  town,  and  served  for  about  two  years  under 
the  assumed  name  of  Robert  Shurtleff.  Lavinia,  wife  of  C.  G.  Strat- 
ton, (Gen.  Tom  Thumb)  and  Minnie  Warren,  the  well  known  dwarfs, 
were  natives  and  are  now  residents  of  Middleboro. 

Luke  Short,  who  died  here  in  1746,  aged  116  years,  was  converted 
when  about  one  hundred  years  old,  as  a result  ol  a sermon  he  heard 
preached  by  John  Flavel,  about  80  years  previous. 

Moses  Thompson,  who  died  Dec.  2,  1858,  aged  96  years,  5 months, 
was  the  last  Revolutionary  soldier  from  the  town. 

The  oldest  literary  institution  in  town  is  Peirce  Academy,  Prof.  J. 
W.  P.  Jenks,  Principal.  A very  large  cabinet  and  apparatus  belongs 
to  the  institution.  For  a view  of  the  building,  as  well  as  the  First 
Baptist  Church,  see  engraving.  The  Pratt  Free  School  occupies  the 
building  formerly  known  as  Titicut  Academy 

The  incorporated  name  of  the  town  was  Middleberry,  and  in  the 
Old  Colony  records  it  was ‘often  written  Middlebury.  Afterwards  the, 
spelling  of  Middleborough  was  adopted,  and  by  general  consent  the 
useless  appendage  of  the  ugh  has  of  late  years  been  usually  dropped, 
leaving  the  name  Middleboro. 

Note. — Most  of  the  foregoing  facts  were  gathered  by  the  late  Messrs,  Rev.  Stillman 
Fratt  and  Z.  Eddy,  Esqr

rIAHIS,  the  north-west  town  in  Plymouth  County,  is  located  20 
1-  miles  south  from  Boston,  and  25  miles  from  Plymouth.  It  is 
•>  1-2  miles  in  length  and  ft  in  width,  and  contains  13,000  acres,  with 
a total  length  of  07  miles  of  highway. 

The  villages  in  town  are  the  “ Centre,”  a thriving,  energetic  and 
attractive  business  locality;  “Campello,”  signifying  a small  plain, 
rioted  for  its  manufactories  of  musical  instruments,  cabinet  ware  and 
boots  and  shoes;  “ Sprague’s  Village,”  where  is  situated  the  last  fac- 
tory and  beautiful  residence  of  Chandler  Sprague,  Esq.,  and  “ West 
Shares.” 

The  facts  connected  with  the  oil  town  of  Bridgewater,  before  its 
division,  are  given  elsewhere.  Thq  first  settlers  in  the  North  Parish, 
came  from  the  West  Parish  about  1700.  Separate  church  organiza- 
tion was  secured  in  1738,  and  the  town  incorporation  in  1821. 

The  first  minister  was  John  Porter,  ordained  in  17-10.  In  1800, 
Asa  Meech  was  settled,  as  his  colleague.  Mr.  Porter,  died  in  1802, 
and  Mr.  Meech  was  dismissed  in  1811.  The  successors  were  Daniel 
Huntington,  *1812-1833;  Win.  Thompson,  1833-1834;  Paul  Couch, 
1835-1859;  Nathaniel  B.  Blanchard,  1861-1862;  Edward  L.  Clark, 
1863-1866;  andEev.  J,  W.  Ward. 

The  Second  Congregational  Society  was  organized  in  1825.  John 
Goldsbury  first  minister. 

The  New  Jerusalem  Society,  was  formed  in  1827,  with  ten  members  . 
Ministers,  Eleazer  Smith,  1827-1834;  Haskell  M.  Carll;  and  Warren 
Goddard,  settled  in  1839.  Their  present  Church  Tentple  is  79  by  56 
feet,  Italian  style,  with  a plain  square  tower.  The  seats  are  semi-cir- 
cular, with  pulpit  and  tabernacle  of  black-walnut. 

The  South  Congregational  Church,  Campello,  was  organized  in  1837. 
John  Dwight  was  settled  in  the  same  year,  dismissed  1839.  Daniel 
Huntington,  settled  from  1839  to  1853.  In  the  great  fire  of  that  year, 
the  church  edifice  and  other  buildings  to  the  value  of  $50,000  were 
destroyed.  A new  edifice  in  the  Eomanesque  style,  with  spire  135 
feet  high,  was  built  at  a cost  of  $16,000.  D.  Temple  Packard,  was 
settled  two  years,  and  in  1858,  he  was  succeeded  by  Charles  W. 
Wood,  a native  of  Middleboro. 

In  1830,  111  persons  formed  the  First  Episcopal  Methodist  Society, 
at  West  Shares.  This  is  the  only  house  that  retains  the  elevated 
seats  for  colored  people  in  each  corner  of  the  choir  gallery. 

The  First  Baptist  Church  was  constituted  Jan.  10th,  1850. 

The  Porter  Evangelical  Church,  was  composed  of  members  who 
withdrew  from  the  First  Church,  in  1850.  The  settlementshave  been 
John  F.  Norton,  1850-1851  ; Charles  L.  Mills,  1852-1862;'  Samuel  H. 
Lee,  1862-1866;  and  J.  V.  Hilton.

Tlie  Catliolics,  previous  to  1856,  held  meetings  in  private  houses. 
Under  the  ministry  of  Thomas  B.  McNulty,  a lot  was  bought  for  $5,225, 
and  a splendid  church  edifice  of  the  Romanesque  style,  110  by  50 
feet,  was  erected  of  brick,  with  tower  and  steeple  1 80  feet  high.  The 
chancel  windows  of  stained  glass  have  emblematic  panes  representing 
Matthew,  Mark,  Luke  and  John.  Upon  the  walls  are  14  Italian  pic- 
tures of  great  value.  The  edifice  cost  $25,000. 

The  First  LTniversalist  Church  was  organized  in  1857.  AY.  A.  Start 
Avas  the  first  pastor,  succeeded  by  Rev.  S.  L.  Roripaugh. 

The  Second  M.  E.  Church,  was  formed  in  1842,  and  in  1858,  the  pres- 
ent attractive  edifice  was  erected.  It  will  thus  be  seen  that  the  tow'll 
may  justly  claim  pre-eminence  for  the  number  as  well  as  the  beauty  of 
its  houses  of  worship. 

In  1756,  the  precinct  voted  thaP&‘  the  rume  on  the  wemens  side  of 
the  gallery  should  be  for  the  wemen,”  showing  that  then,  the  men  and 
women  were  seated  in  seperate  pews.  In  1772,  a number  of  persons 
“ larned”  in  the  rules  of  “ musick,”  were  assigned  seats  in  the  gallery, 
which  produced  dissatisfaction.  In  1789,  it  was  voted  to  build  pews 
in  the  porch  and  belfry  for  the  negroes,  and  sell  their  present  pews, 
which  created  ill  feelings  on  the  part  of  the  colored  population.  In 
1800,  complaint  was  made  that  blacks  occupied  seats  with  white  peo- 
ple, and  they  were  instructed  to  sit  in  the  porch  gallery.  In  1818,  the 
subject  of  warming  the  church  with  stoves,  was  brought  up,  but  was 
voted  down  as  a sinful  luxury.  In  1$33,  the  Parish  voted  that  they 
would  not  accept  a stove  as  a gift.  In  1835,  however,  it  was  voted  to 
warm  the  house.  ^In  1827,  while  a new  house  was  being  built,  precious 
meetings  were  held  in  the  sheds  on  the  green. 

The  Adelphian  Academy,  North  Bridgwater  Academy,  and  Mrs.  Na- 
than Jones’  School,  were  well  known  institutions  in  their  day.  Thirty- 
four  natives  of  the  town  have  been  College  graduates. 

In  1845-6,  the  railroad  from  South  Braintree  to  Bride  water  was . 
built,  and  was  known  as  the  Randolph  and  Bridgewater  Co.  Previ- 
ous to  this,  the  Fall  River  Branch  had  been  built  from  Myrick’s  to 
Fall  River.  Another  road  was  chartered  from  Bridgewater  to  My- 
rick’s. These  three  lines  were  united  as  the  Fall  River  road,  and 
in  1854,  this  was  united  with  the  Old  Colony  road,  and  in  1864,  the 
name  was  changed  to  the  “ Old  Colony  and  Newport  Railway.” 

The  “Bridgewater  Patriot  and  Old  Colony  Gazette,”  was  com- 
nienced  in  1835,  by  Geo.  H.  Brown.  It  was  removed  afterwards  to 
East  Bridgewater.  The  “ Old  Colony  Reporter,”  was  commenced  in 
1848,  by  Bartlett  & Stetson.  This  continued  till  1851.  In  the  latter 
year,  the  “ North  Bridgewater  Gazette”  was  commenced  by  George 
Phinney,  now  of  the  “AValtham  Sentinel,”  who  sold  out  to  Augustus 
T.  Jones,  in  1853.

111  1090,  there  were  but  six  tunes  known  in  the  Province;  “Ox- 
ford,” “ Litchfield,”  “ York,”  “ Windsor,”  “ St.  David’s”  and  “Mar- 
tyr’s,” and  no  new  tune^  could  be  introduced  without  vote  of  the 
church.  At  present,  the  church  music  of  North  Bridgewater  is  of  a 
high  order. 

At  one  time  there  were  three  Brass  Bands  in  town.  The  Band  of 
the  12th  Regiment,  was  the  favorite  organization  with  Gen.  Sherman. 
. The  North  Bridgewater  Bank  is  one  of  the  institutions  of  the  past. 
The  Savings  Bank  is  in  flourishing  condition. 

The  first  fire-engine  was  purchased  by  subscription,  in  1827.  The 
town  bought  the  “Protector”  and  “Enterprise,”  in  1817.  There 
lias  always  been  a laudable  feeling  of  rivalry  between  the  different 
Companies,  and  many  trials  of  machines  have  been  made. 

The  first  burial-ground  was  located  between  the  Center  and  Cairi- 
pello.  The  “ Melrose”  and  “ Oak  Grove”  and  “ St.  Patrick’s”  Ceme- 
teries, are  the  more  modern  ones. 

Until  1823,  the  town’s  poor  were  put  out  at  auction  to  the  one  who 
would  support  them  the  cheapest.  In  1831,  a poor-house  farm  was 
purchased.  North  Bridgewater  has  no  Town  House. 

The  Gas  Light  Company  was  organized  in  1859. 

In  17-19,  hay  had  to  be  brought  from  England  on  account  of  the 
severe  drought.  May  19th,  1780,  a “dark  day,”  when  people  were 
obliged  to  eat  their  dinners  by  the  light  of  candles. 

Archibald  Thompson  made  the  first  spinning  wheel  in  the  country. 
The  manufacture  of.  lasts  by  Chandler  Sprague,  revolutionized  that 
branch  of  business.  E.  D.  & 0.  B.  Reynolds  are  the  inventors  of  a 
very  ingenious  and  valuable  Seed  Sower.  D.  Whittemore,  and  C.  L. 
Hauthaway  & Son,  are  extensively  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of 
blacking,  and  ink. 

The  Boot  and  Shoe  Manufactories,  Merchants,  Musical  Instruments, 
Photograph  Saloons,  Confectionary  establishment  and  Marble  Workers, 
of  North  Bridgewater,  are  favorably  known  in  all  the  County. 

The  shoe  trade  of  Massachusetts,  may  be  said  to  have  commenced 
about  1818,  when  the  first  cargo  was  shipped  to  New  York.  These 
were  of  the  sewed  kind.  About  this  time,  the  uppers  were  riveted  to 
the  bottoms,  using  a steel  plate  for  the  purpose.  Wooden  pegs  were 
first  used  by  Joseph  Walker,  of  Hopkinton.  Micah  Faxon,  was  the 
first  manufacturer  in  town,  coming  from  Randolph,  in  1811.  No  one 
in  town  then  could  bind  the  vamps.  He  carried  his  first  lot,  of  one 
hundred  pairs,  to  Boston,  on  horseback.  In  1865,  with  the  aid  of 
steam  engines,  sewing,  pegging,  cutting  and  scouring  machines,  1,112,- 
766  pairs  of  boots  and  shoes  were  manufactured,  valued  at  $1,466,900, 
and  employing  1267  persons. 

Jesse  Reed,  born  here  in  1778,  invented  a new  kind  of  trip  hammer,

at  the  age  of  nine.  At  twelve,  he  constructed  a wooden  clock.  Since 
then,  he  has  invented  nail  machines,  pumps,  cotton  gins,  boot  and  shoo 
machines,  &c.  He  has  made  and  lost  several  fortunes  in  his  day. 

Of  the  origin  of  some  of  the  old  families,  we  mention  those  of  Ames, 
Alden,  Bryant,  Brett,  Carv,  Edton,  Hayward,  Howard,’  Packard,  Pratt, 
Snow,  Southworth,  and  Thayer,  English ; Dike  and  Keith,  Scotch  : 
Wilson,  Welsh ; Henry,  Irish. 

Fifty-five  inhabitants  of  North  Bridgewater  served  in  the  French  and 
Indian  wars.  The  record  in  the  Revolutionary  war  was  patriotic.  In 
many  instances  the  women  of  the  town  had  to  till  the  soil  to  obtain 
the  necessities  of  liie.  In  1773,  Bridgewater  had  9 militia  Co’s. 

At  the  conclusion  of  the  Revolutionary  war,  the  country  was  flooded 
■with  foreign  goods,  draining  us  of  specie,  and  ruining  our  manufac- 
turers. Our  people,  burdened  under  the  great  weight  of  taxation,  and 
great  numbers  out  of  employment,  became  disheartened  and  were 
easily  lead  into  the  support  of  any  scheme  that  would  seem  to  relieve 
these  burdens. 

The  result  of  a public  meeting  at  Hatfield,  Mass.,  August,  1786, 
so  inflamed  the  people  that  a mob  of  fifteen  hundred,  gathered  at 
Northampton,  to  prevent  the  sitting  of  the  Cpurts.  Daniel  Shay,  of 
Pelham,  was  one  of  the  prime  movers  in  the  scheme,  hence  the  name 
of  “ Shay’s  Rebellion.”  A gathering  similar  to  the  one  at  North- 
ampton, was  held  at  the  Court  House,  Taunton,  in  September,  but  the 
insurgents  were  overawed  by  iieut.  Col.  Orr’s,  and  Capt.  John 
Thompson’s  Companies,  of  the  3d  Plymouth  County  Regiment.  54 
of  these  soldiers  were  from  North  Bridgewater. 

In  the  Rebellion  war,  the  town  shows  a brilliant  record.  Co.  F,  12th 
Mass.  Reg’t.,  Co,  I,  1st  Cavalry,  Co,  C,  60th  Mass.  Reg’t.,  were  mainly 
recruited  here.

PEMBROKE. 


n\r  F.  COLL  AM  ORE,  M.  J>. 


~0T  much  is  known  concerning’  what  is  now  Pembroke,  prior  to 


its  incorporation.  Previous  to  17P2,  all  the  territory  that  the 
limits  of  Pembroke  now  embrace,  was  Duxbury,  except  a small  por- 
tion below  Robinson’s  Creek.  The  western  part  of  what  is  now  Pem- 
broke, was  called  Namattakeeset. 

In  March,  1641, -the  bounds  of  Duxbury  were  fixed  at  a court. 
Ordered,  That  the  bounds  of  Puxburrow  Township  shall  begin  where 
Plymouth  bounds  do  end,  namely  at  a brook  falling  into  Pdack water, 
and  so  along  the  Massachusetts  path  to  the  North  River.  This  path 
was  the  regular  line  for  travel  between  the  Plymouth  and  Massachu- 
setts Colonies. 

Tradition  says  its  crossed  the  Indian  Head  River  near  where  Curtis’s 
Iron  Works  now  stand.  It  was  at  this  place  that  James  Ludden,  an 
early  settler  of  Weymouth,  acting  as  guide  to  Gov.  Winthrop  and 
Rev.  Mr.  Wilson,  while  on  their  journey  to  Plymouth,  in  1632,  had 
the  honor  of  taking  their  honors  over  the  river,  pussbacle.  From  this 
fact,  the  Gov.  named  it  Ludden’s  Ford.  This  name  is  now  Lowden. 
That  portion  of  Pembroke  below  Robinson’s  Creek,  was  included  in 
the  Two  Mile  purchase  made  by  Mr.  Hatherly  and  his  associates  of 
Scituate,  of  the  Indian  chief  Josiah  Wampatuck.  In  1661,  a grant 
was  made  to  the  towns  of  Duxbury  and  Marshfield,  of  a tract  of  land 
between  Jones’  River  and  Indian  Head  River.  This  was  known  as 
Marshfield  upper  lands.  The  “ Major’s  purchase,”  an  earlier  grant 
to  the  town,  included  the  Great  Cedar  Swamp,  in  the  limits  of  Hanson 
now.  Both  these  grants  were  included  in  the  limits  of  Pembroke,  at 
one  time. 

The  tradition  of  the  Barker  family,  is  that  in  1628  or  30,  Francis 
Barker,  and  his  brother,  who  were  among  the  Plymouth  adventurers, 
took  a boat  and  coasted  along  the  shore  till  they  came  to  the  North 
River,  which  they  ascended  as  far  as  it  was  navigable,  that  they  landed 
on  a rock  near  the  site  of  the  present  Herring  weir  gnd  went  in  pur- 
suit of  a good  place  to  locate.  They  built  a house  oU  brick,  con- 
taining one  room,  and  one  story  high.  This,  with  the  additions  that 
have  since  been  made,  is  the  old  garrison  house,  said  to  be  the  oldest 
house  in  the  United  States.  In  1679,  this  dwelling-house  was  con- 
verted into  a garrison  and  was  a place  of  refuge  for  those  who  feared 
their  savage  neighbors. 

Pembroke,  at  its  incorporation,  was  bounded  on  the  North  by  Scit- 
uate and  Abington ; on  the  East  by  Robinson’s  Creek,  (separating  it 
from  Scituate),  by  Marshfield  and  Duxbury ; on  the  South  by  Duxbury 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY.

and  Plymouth,  and  on  the  West  by  U ridge  water.  It  contained  liity- 
four  families. 

There  were  two  places  of  public  worship,  one  on  the  site  of  the  pres- 
ent Unitarian  Church,  and  the  peaked  meeting-house  erected  by  the 
Friends. 

The  first  Congregational  meeting-house,  was  erected  in  1703,  the 
Friends’  meeting-house  in  1706. 

Pembroke  was  incorporated  in  1711.  The  prayer  of  the  petition 
was  that  the  new  town  should  be  called  Brookfield.  Why  it  was 
called  Pembroke  does  not  appear.  . It  was  probably  named  for  Pem- 
broke in  England. 

The  Indians  that  lived  in  this  vicinity,  belonged  to  the  Massachu- 
setts, at  one  time  a powerful  tribe,  numbering  3000  warriors  and  occu- 
pying the  whole  country  from  Neponset  to  Duxbury,  and  extending 
back  from  the  shore  to  Bridgewater  and  Middleboro. 

A large  portion  of  this  tribe  were  converted  to  Christianity  and  were 
known  as  praying  Indians.  At  the  breaking  out  of  Philip’s  war, 
many  of  them  were  conveyed  by  Government  to  Clark’s  Island,  where 
they  might  be  secured  from  their  hostile  brothers.  Cliicatabut  was 
their  sachem.  His  father,  Josiah  Wampatuck,  sold  Scituate  to  Mr. 
Hatherly  and  his  associates,  for  £14. 

In  1684,  there  were  about  forty  at  Namattakeeset  The  particular 
sub-division  of  this  tribe  that  lived  near  the  Indian  ponds,  was  called 
Mattakeeset,  and  from  these  are  descended  Joseph  Hyatt,  Martin  Prince, 
and  William  Joel. 

David  Fuller  was  descended  from  the  Tumpum  tribe.  This  was 
probably  a family  or  patriarchal  name. 

It  seems  that  Pembroke  was  not  always  considered  out  of  the  world. 
Indeed  it  was  thought  to  be  the  very  hub  of  Plymouth  County,  for  in 
the  year  1726,  and  for  a number  of  subsequent  years,  endeavors  were 
made  to  effect  the  removal  of  the  county  buildings  here,  and  constitute 
it  the  shire  town.  If  the  Puritans  had  landed  at  Seabury  Point  in- 
stead of  Plymouth  Pock,  it  might  have  been. 

It  is  a matter  of  history,  that  Pembroke  was  the  first  town  in  the 
Colonies,  that  publicly  rebelled  against  the  British  Crown. 

In*  1740,  the  town  protested  against  the  efforts  of  the  Prince  to  sup- 
press the  emission  of  bills  of  public  credit,  which  had  become  depre- 
ciated on  account  of  the  large  export  of  silver.  The  following  is  a 
very  brief  extract  from  the  protest : — “ Which  instructions  from  the 
Crown  are  we  presume  a manifest  infraction  of  our  charter  rights  and 
privileges  as  well  as  that  of  our  invaluable  national  constitution,  so 
long  enjoyed  as  well  as  so  dearly  obtained,  whereby  the  people  have 
a right  of  thinking  and  judging  for  themselves,  as  well  as  the  Prince. 
And  the  representative  shall  be  directed  at  all  times  strictly  to  adhere 


80 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HTSTORY 


to  the  charter,  rights,  and  privileges,  which  we  are  under,  as  also  that 
of  our  English  rights,  liberties  and  constitutions,  any  royal  instruc- 
tion from  his  Majesty  to  the  contrary  notwithstanding.” 

Pembroke  was  noted  for  its  patriotism.  There  was  scarce  a tory 
in  the  town.  The  town  records  are  full  of  patriotic  resolves  passed 
by  the  town  all  along  through  the  “ times  that  tried  men’s  souls.” 

In  1772,  Dec.  28th,  the  following  among  other  resolves,  was  passed. 
Resolved , “That  this  Province,  and  this  town  as  part  of  it.  hath  a right 
whenever  they  think  it  necessary,  to  give  their  sense  of  public  meas- 
ures, and  if  judged  to  be  unconstitutional  and  oppressive,  to  declare 
it  freely  and  to  remonstrate  or  petition  as  they  may  deem  best.” 

Conspicuous  among  the  leading  spirits  of  those  times  were  Josiah 
Keen,  Esq.,  Dr.  Jeremiah  Hall,  John  Turner,  Eleazer  Hamlen,  Seth 
Hatch,  Josiah  Smith,  Capt.  Freedom  Chamberlain,  Abel  Stetson, 
Aaron  Soule,  Israel  Turner,  Capt.  Ichabod  Thomas,  Asaph  Tracy,  Con- 
sider Cole,  Asa  Keen,  and  Nathaniel  Stetson.  Of  these,  Dr.  Hall, 
Capt.  Seth  Hatch,  Asa  Keen,  and  Nathaniel  Stetson  had  served  in  the 
French  war.  Dr.  Hall  was  a Surgeon  in  the  French  war.  Capt.  Seth 
Hatch,  commanded  a supply  ship,  and  at  one  time  run  the  blockade  of 
the  St.  Lawrence  and  furnished  supplies  to  Gen.  Wolf,  and  his  army. 
For  this  he  was  publicly  thanked  by  the  General,  and  after  the  battte 
of  Quebec,  he  was  presented  with  some  articles  of  the  General’s  tenl 
furniture. 

John  Turner,  Dr.  Hall,  and  Capt.  Edward  Thomas  were  members 
of  the  Provincial  Congress.  While  attending  this  Congress, •Dr.  Hall 
was  chosen  on  many  important  committees  of  that  body.  He  was 
quite  intimate  with  Dr.  Joseph  Warreu,  and  thus  described  to  a friend 
his  last  parting  with  him.  “Being  both  members  of  the  Provincial 
Congress,  we  left  Concord  at  the  dawn  of  day,  June  17, 1775,  .and  rode 
in  company  till  our  paths  diverged,  (Dr.  Hall  was  going  to  the  head- 
quarters of  the  American  army  at  Cambridge).  Dr.  Warren,  at  this 
interview,  informed  him  that  he  had  a Major  General's  commission  in 
his  pocket,  but  that  he  should  not  use  it.”  Dr.  Hall  was  afterwards 
Colonel  of  a Phode  Island  regiment.  He  was  a noted  Surgeon.  He 
held  many  public  offices  in  the  Colony.  He  had  a son  Jeremiah,  who 
died  while  a soldier  at  Cambridge,  according  to  the  inscription  placed 
on  his  tomb-stone  by  his  patriot  sire,  “in  the  service  of  his  country, 
opposing  British  tyranny  and  Britain’s  tyrants.”  Eleazer  Hamlin, 
mentioned  above,  was  grandfather  to  the  Hon.  Hannibal  Hamlin.

PLYMOUTH. 

IN  our  preliminary  sketch  of  Plymouth  County  we  have  given  many 
facts  that  would  otherwise  appear  in  our  history  of  this  town. 
Plymouth  is  thirty-seven  miles  south-west  of  Boston.  The  township 
is,  we  believe,  the  largest  in  the  State,  extending  sixteen  miles  on  the 
coast  from  north  to  south.  The  land,  back  from  the  village,  is  gener- 
ally hilly  and  covered  with  pine  woods.  This  wooded  section  extends 
many  miles  into  Barnstable  County,  and  is  traversed  by  very  few  roads, 
and  has  scarcely  any  houses.  The  delicate  fallow  deer,  still  roams 
this  territory,  in  his  native  wilderness,  and  every  winter  the  hunter’s 
rifle  secures  its  antlered  trophies. 

The  town  is  built  on  the  shore,  upon  an  easy  declivity,  about  one- 
fourth  of  a mile  in  breadth  and  one  and  a half  miles  in  length.  The 
soil  here  is  good.

Tlie  harbor  is  formed  by  a beach  extending  three  miles  northerly 
from  the  mouth  of  Eel  river.  This  beach  would  long  ago  hare  been 
washed  away  by  the  ocean  had  not  large  appropriations  been  made  by 
the  town,  state,  and  general  government.  At  present  there  -is  not 
sufficient  depth  of  water  for  the  largest  class  of  vessels,  although  a 
very  considerable  fleet  of  fishing  and  coasting  vessels  is  owned  here. 

“ There  is  considerable  water-power  in  the  town,  and  this  mother  of 
all  the  towns  in  the  land,  is  setting  her  daughters  a good  example  of 
domestic  industry.” 

Numerous  small  streams  cross  the  township,  and  there  are  upward 
of  200  lakes  with  an  aggregate  water  surface  of  more  than  3000 
acres. 

Wo  give  below  an  alphabetical  list  of  passengers  who  arrived  at 
Plymouth  in  the  Mayflower,  180  tons  burthen,  Dec.  21st,  1620, — 
the  Fortune  of  55  tons,  Nov.  9th,  1621, — the  Ann,  of  140  tons,  and 
the  Little  James,  of  44  tons,  the  last  of  July,  or  the  beginning  of 
August,  1623. 

The  letter  attached  to  each  name  indicates  the  vessel  in  which  the 
passenger  came,  m stands  for  the  Mayflower, — f for  the  Fortune, — a

“Several  names  contained  in  the  foregoing  list,  are  differently  spelt 
in  modern  times,  namely : Bassite  is  now  spelt  Bassett;  Bompasse, 

Biimpas,  sometimes  Bump ; Burcher  is  probably  the  same  as  Bure  hard, 
the  name  of  an  early  settler  in  Connecticut ; Be  La  Noye,  Delano ; 
Dotey  is  on  our  records  called  Dote,  Dotey,  and  now  frequently  written 
Doten;  Simonson,  sometimes  written  Symons,  is  now  Simmons.” 

Thomas  Carlyle  observes,  in  his  recent  work,  “Look  now  to  Ameri- 
can Saxoudom,  and  at  that  little  fact  of  the  sailing  of  the  Mayflower, 
two  hundred  years  ago.  There  were  straggling  settlers  in  America 
before;  some  material  as  of  a body  was  there;,  but  the  soul  of  it  was 
this.  These  poor  men,  driven  out  of  their  own  country,  and  not  able 
to  live  in  Holland,  determined  on  settling  in  the  new  world.  Black 
untamed  forests  are  there,  and  wild  savage  creatures;  but  not  so  cruel 
as  a star  chamber  hangman..  They  clubbed  their  small  means  togeth- 
er, hired  a ship,  the  little  Mayflower,  and  made  ready  to  sail.  Hah ! 
Those  men,  I think,  had  a work.  The  weak  thing,  weaker  than  a 
child,  becomes  strong,  if  it  be  a true  thing.  Puritanism  was  only  de- 
spicable, laughable,  then ; but  nobody  can  manage  to  laugh  at  it  now. 
It  is  one  of  the  strongest  things  under  the  sun  at  present.” 

“ Plymouth  was  the  first  town  built  in  New  England  by  civilized 
man ; and  those  by  whom  it  was  built  were  inferior  in  worth  to  no 
body  of  men,  whose  names  a,re  recorded  in  history,  during  the  last 
seventeen  hundred  years.  A kind  of  venerableness,  arising  from  these 
facts,  attaches  to  this  town,  which  may  be  termed  a prejudice.  Still, 
it  has  its  foundation  in  the  nature  of  man,  and  will  never  be  eradicated 
either  by  philosophy  or  ridicule.  No  New  Englander,  who  is  willing 
to  indulge  his  native  feelings,  can  stand  upon  the  rock,  where  our  an- 
cestors set  the  first  foot  after  their  arrival  on  the  American  shore, 
without  experiencing  emotions  very  different  from  those  which  are  ex- 
cited by  any  common  object  of  the  same  nature.  No  New  Englander 
could  be  willing  to  have  that  rock  buried  and  forgotten.” 

“ The  institutions,  civil,  literary,  and  religious,  by  which  New  Eng- 
land is  distinguished  on  this  side  the  Atlantic,  began  here.  Here  the 
manner  of  holding  lands  in  free  soccage,  now  universal  in  this  country, 
commenced.  Here  the  right  of  suffrage  was  imparted  to  every  citizen, 
to  every  inhabitant  not  disqualified  by  poverty  or  vice.  Here  was 
formed  the  first  establishment  of  towns,  of  the  local  legislature,  which 
is  called  a town  meeting,  and  of  the  peculiar  town  executive,  styled

the  selectmen.  Here  the  first  parochial  school  was  set  up,  and  the 
system  originated  for  communicating  to  every  child  in  the  community 
the  knowledge  of  reading,  writing,  and  arithmetic.  Hert^  also,  the 
first  building  was  erected  for  the  worship  of  God ; the  first  religious 
assembly  gathered ; and  the  first  minister  called  and  settled,  by  the 
voice  of  the  church  and  congregation.  On  these  simple  foundations 
has  since  been  erected  a structure  of  good  order,  peace,  liberty,  knowl- 
edge;  morals,  and  religion,  with  which  nothing  on  this  side  the  At- 
lantic can  bear  a remote  comparison.” 

The  first  marriage  in  Plymouth,  was  May  12,  1621,  of  Edward 
Winslow  and  Widow  Susanna  White.  The  first  mill  in  New  England 
was  erected  near  Billington  Sea,  by  Stephen  Dean,  in  1632. 

March  12,  1676,  the  house  of  Mr.  Clark  was  attacked  by  the  Indians 
and  11  persons  belonging  to  two  families  killed,  and  the  house  burnt. 
May  11,  the  same  year,  eleven  houses  and  two  barns  were  burnt  by 
the  savages. 

Plymouth  is  not  the,  “ rock-bound  coast”  that  poets  would  make  us 
believe.  There  is  not  known  in  the  township  a single  ledge  except 
those  that  the  fishermen  reach  with  their  leads,  off  the  coast,  hence  it 
is  the  more  singular  that  a single,  hard,  grey-colored  sienitic  granite 
boulder  should  have  become  so  celebrated  as*  “Plymouth  Pock.”  In 
1774,  some  ardent  whigs,  attempted  to  remove  this  rock  to  town 
square  with  the  intention  of  erecting  over  it  a liberty  pole.  In  the 
attempt,  the  rock  split  asunder,  and  the  lower  part  was  returned  to  its 
original  bed,  while  the  top  part  was  drawn  to  the  square,  amid  great 
excitement,  by  twenty  yoke  of  oxen.  July  4tli,  1834,  this  part  of  the 
rock  was  placed  in  front  of  Pilgrim  Hall.  The  part  remaining  at  the 
water’s  side  is  about  six  and  a half  feet  in  diameter.  Over  this  part, 
a substantial  granite  monument  has  been  partially  erected,  by  the  Pil- 
grim Society,  with  funds  contributed  by  the  admirers  of  the  Forefath- 
ers. 

The  honor  of  first  stepping  upon  the  Pock,  has  been  claimed  both 
for  Mary  Chilton  and  John  Alden,  by  the  descendants  of  each — resting 
upon  tradition  in  both  families. 

Cole's  Hill , the  first  burial  place  of  the  Pilgrims,  is  just  back  of  the 
Pock.  About  50  of  those  who  came  in  the  Mayflower,  were  buried 
here,  including  Gov.  Carver,  “with  three  vollies  of  shot  fired  over  him,” 
and  Pose,  the  beautiful  wife  of  Miles  Standish. 

Burying  Hill , was  originally  called  Fort  Hill,  because  here  was 
built  the  first  defensive  structure.  This  ancient  fort  is  distinctly 
marked  on  the  south-east  part  of  the  hill.  The  building  was  of  good 
timber,  strong  and  comely,  with  flat  roof  upon  which  the  ordnance 
was  mounted.  It  also  served  as  a meeting-house.  The  hill  was  first 
used  as  a burying- ground  soon  after.  The  first  stone  erected,  it  is 
supposed,  was  that  of  Joseph  Bartlett,  who  died  in  1703,  although

there  wore  many  interments  previous,  including  that  of  Edward  Gray, 
in  1681.  Within  a few  years,  several  costly  monuments  have  been 
erected  to  the  memory  of  the  ancient  worthies,  by  their  descendants. 
The  Cushman  monument  is  one  of  the  most  noticeable.  A stone  has 
been  erected  in  memory  of  the  72  seamen  who  porished  from  cold,  in 
Plymouth  Harbor,  Dec.  26th,  and  27th,  1778,  on  board  the  private 
armed  brig  General  Arnold,  of  20  guns,  numbering  106  persons  in  all, 
60  of  whom  were  buried  in  one  spot  and  12  in  other  parts  of  the  Hill. 
Quite  lately  numerous  walks  have  been  laid  out  in  different  parts  of 
this  burying-ground,  and  an  effort  to  secure  some  degree  of  regularity 
of  arrangement  has  been  attempted.  Any  inhabitants  of  the  town 
seem  to  have  the  free  privilege  of  burying  in  any  unoccupied  sections 
of  the  lot,  and  many,  even  to  this  day,  avail  themselves  of  this  privi- 
lege, although  a large  and  beautiful  cemetery  has  been  consecrated  at 
a little  distance  west  from  the  village,  under  the  name  of  “Oak  Grove.” 

The  corner  stone  of  Pilgrim  Hall,  a monumental  structure,  was  laid 
Sep.  1st,  1821,  and  the  building  completed  ten  years  later.  It  is  70 
by  10  feet,  built  of  rough  granite.  On  entering  the  Hall,  the  painting 
of  the  “ Landing  of  the  Pilgrims,”  generously  presented  to  the  Pil- 
grim Society,  by  Henry  Sargent,  Esq.,  of  Boston,  first  challenges  at- 
tention. The  size  is  13  by  16  feet.  It  was  valued  at  $3000,  aside 
from  the  frame,  which  cost  $400.  All  the  prominent  characters  in  the 
Colony,  are  represented  in  the  costume  of  their  time,  with  the  friendly 
Indian,  Samoset,  in- the  foreground.  On  the  walls,  are  arranged  por- 
traits of  Edward  Winslow;  Josiah  Winslow,  the  first  native  Governor ; 
his  wife*  Penelope  Pelham;  Gen.  John  Winslow;  Hon.  Ephraim 
Spooner;  John  Alden  of  Middleboro,  great-grand-son  of  John  Alden 
the  Pilgrim,  who  died  in  1821,  aged  102  years ; Maj.  Gen.  Benj.  Lin- 
coln ; Hon.  John  Trumbull ; James  Thatcher,  M.  D. ; James  Kendell, 
D.  D.  ; and  others.  Among  the  antiquities  are  : — A chair  which  be- 
longed to  Gov.  Carver;  the  sword,  pewter  dish,  and  iron  pot,  that  be- 
longed to  Miles  Standisli ; the  gun-barrel  with  which  King  Philip  was 
killed  ; the  original  letter  of  Philip  to  Gov.  Prince,  written  in  1662  ; 
deeds  bearing  the  signatures  of  Miles  Standish,  Josiah  Winslow,  Per- 
egrine White,  John  Alden,  and  many  other  of  the  old  notables;  chairs 
belonging  to  Elder  Brewster,  and  Gov.  Wm.  Bradford;  a bead  purse 
wrought  by  Mrs.  Gov.  Winslow,  while  on  her  voyage  over ; a gold 
ring  owned  by  the  Gov.,  and  containing  some  of  his  hair  ; a commiss- 
ion from  Oliver  Cromwell  to  Edward  Winslow,  dated  April,  1654  ; 
a clock  belonging  to  Gov.  Hancock,  which  was  taken  to  West  Bridge- 
water  at  the  time  of  the  siege ; the  “ Fuller  cradle besides  many 
other  valuable  relics  of  the  Pilgrims.  There  is  also  a large  library. 

In  front  of  Pilgrim  Hall,  is  an  iron  railing  enclosing  apart  of  Fore- 
father’s Hock  on  which  are  inscribed  the  41  names  of  the  signers  of 
the  compact  in  the  Mayflower.

PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


The  “Old  Colony  Club”  was  formed  in  1769.  The  first  celebration 
of  the  Landing  of  the  Forefathers,  was  held  in  1769.  A very  plain 
dinner  of  the  old-fashioned  dishes  was  served.  The  succeeding  year, 
in  addition  to  the  dinner,  an  address  was  delivered  by  Edward  Wins- 
low, the  first  of  a long  series  of  similar  productions. 

The  “Pilgrim  Society”  was  formed  in  1820.  In  1850,  it  was  voted 
to  erect  a monument  on  or  near  the  Pock. 

The  beach  was  formerly  well  wooded,  and  abounded  with  plums 
and  grapes.  The  Gurnet,  at  the  entrance  of  the.  harbor,  containing 
about  27  acres  of  excellent  land,  was  also  well  wooded.  It  is  the  ex- 
treme point  of  Marshfield  beach. 

The  Province  of  Massachusetts  erected  a light  house  in  1768,  which 
was  destroyed  by  fire  in  1801.  The  United  States  erected  its  suc- 
cessor in  1803.  Saquish,  the  Indian  for  clams,  is  a headland  con- 
taining 11  acres,  and  connected  with  the  Gurnet.  The  “ Cow  Yard” 
is  the  good  anchorage  near  by,  so  called  because  a cow  whale  was 
captured  there  in  early  days. 

Clark’s  Island,  so  called  in  honor  of  the  mate  of  the  Mayflower, 
contains  86  acres,  and  was  the  place  of  the  first  landing  of  the  Pil- 
grims in  this  section,  and  was  where  they  spent  their  first  Sabbath. 
It  was  formerly  well  covered  with  cedar  trees.  It  has  been  owned  by 
the  town,  and  by  the  Watson  family. 

A large  rock  on  the  island  called  Election  Pock,  was  long  resorted 
to  by  holiday  parties.  Brown’s  Island  was  covered  with  trees  when 
the  Pilgrims  landed.  It  is  now  under  water. 

The  Court  House,  on  Court  House  Square,  is  a very  handsome  build- 
ing, fitted  up  in  admirable  style  for  the  use  of  the  various  County 
Officers  as  well  as  Courts.  The  beautiful  green  in  front,  is  enclosed 
with  an  iron  fence.  In  the  rear  of  the  Court  House  are  the  geols  and 
dwelling-house  attached. 

The  Works  for  supplying  Plymouth  village  with  water  from  “ South 
Ponds,”  which  are  situated  some  three  miles  south  of  the  village, 
were  constructed  by  the  town  in  1855,  at  a cost  of  about  $82,000.  The 
Constructing  Engineer  was  Moses  Bates,  Esq.  More  than  twelve  miles 
of  pipe,  exclusive  of  service,  was  laid.  The  Plymouth  Gaslight  Co., 
is  another  city  luxury  that  our  people  would  hardly  care  to  do  without. 

The  seventy  vessels  employed  in  the  Cod  and  Mackerel  Fisheries, 
and  coasting  business,  in  1865,  with  a tonnage  of  20,733,  employed 
513  men.  At  the  same  date  there  were  three  cotton-mills,  1 spool- 
cotton  mill,  1 woolen  mill,  1 rolling  mill,  2 tack  manufactories,  4 
. cordage  establishments,  2 rivet,  and  2 neck  stock  and  ties  manufac- 
tories. 

The  first  Indian  with  whom  the  Colonists  had  any  intercourse,  was 
Samoset,  the  Sagamore,  whose  home  was  probably  in  Maine.  When 
he  entered  the  settlement  he  was  stark  naked,  except  a leather  about

his  waist,  with  a narrow  fringe.  Thtj  savage  had  picked  up  a few 
words  of  English  from  the  fishermen  who  had  occasionally  visited  the 
coast.  It  was  a joyful  day  for  the  Pilgrim  band  when  they  heard 
in  their  own  tongue  the  words  u Welcome,  Welcome  Englishmen  !” 
They  gave  him  the  best  food  they  had  and  some  strong  water. 

The  Indian  names  of  Plymouth  wero  Umpame,  Apaum  orPatuxet. 

No  communication  was  opened  between  the  Colony  at  Plymouth 
and  the  Dutch  settlement  at  New  York,  until  1627. 

The  first  cattle  were  imported  in  1623. 

Watson' a Hill  was  the  place  where  Massasoit  appeared  with  sixty 
warriors,  and  exchanged  hostages  with  the  English,  preliminary  to. 
the  treaty  of  peace,  in  March,  1021.  At  this  interview,  Samoset  ap- 
pears again,  for  the  last  time  in  history,  accompanied  by  S quanto,  the 
only  native  of  Plymouth,  who  had  been  captured  qnd  carried  to  Eng- 
land, and  who  also  could  speak  a little  English,  accompanied  by 
three  others.  These  friendly  natives  acted  as  interpreters,  and  on  tha  t 
day  a treaty  of  friendship  and  good  will  was  effected  that  lasted  for 
fifty  years. 

Billington  Sea , is  a lovely  sheet  of  fresh  water,  two  miles  south-west 
of  the  town,  which  was  discovered  from  a tree- top,  by  Francis  Bill- 
ington, in  1621.  It  is  about  one  and  a half  miles  long,  and  six  miles 
in  circumference. 

Leyden  street  received  its  present  name  in  1823,  out  of  grateful  re- 
membrance of  the  kindnesses  received  by  the  Pilgrims  in  the  city  of 
Leyden.  It  had  previously  been  called  First,  Great,  and  Broad 
Street. 

The  first  house  of  worship  was  built  on  the  north  side  of  Town 
Square.  Bichard  Church,  nnd  J ohn  Thompson,  afterwards  of  Middle- 
boro,  were  the  architects.  This  building  was  taken  down  in  1683,  and 
another  one  built  at  the  head  of  the  square.  A third  house  was  built 
in  1744,  being  about  71  by  68  feet,  with  spire  100  feet  high  sur- 
mounted by  a brass  weather-cock.  The  Gothic  edifice  was  built  by 
the  first  church  at  a cost  of  $10,000.  It  is  61  by  70  feet.  The  church 
of  the  Pilgrimage  was  erected  in  1840,  and  stands  near  the  site  of 
the  first  meeting-house.  The  Town  House  was  built  in  1749,  and 
was  formerly  used  as  the  County  Court  House. 

In  January,  1831,  the  snow  was  three  feet  deep  in  Plymouth  woods, 
so  impeding  the  movements  of  the  deer,  that  with  snow  shoes  the 
hunters  captured  200,  about  40  of  them  being  taken  alive.  - 

The  bi-centennial  celebration  of  the  landing,  observed  in  1820,  was 
an  occasion  of  great  interest,  Daniel  Webster  delivering  the  oration. 

‘ ‘ Among  other  affecting  memorials,  calling  to  mind  the  distresses  of  the 
Pilgrims,  at  the  dinner,  five  kernels  of  parched  corn  were  placed  on 
each  plate,  alludfng  to  the  time  in  1623,  when  that  was  the  proportion 
allowed  to  each  individual,  on  account  of  the  scarcity.”

The  Samoset  House,  taking  into  account  its  location  and  manage- 
ment, is  the  most  attractive  summer  home  for  the  tourist  in  Plymouth 
County. 

The  first  newspaper  printed  in  the  Old  Colony,  was  at  Plymouth,  in 
1786,  by  Nathaniel  Cleverly.  Since  then,  numerous  hebdomadals  have 
been  established  and  gone  to  decay. 

Two  very  superior  weekly  papers  are  now  printed  at  Plymouth. 

“ The  Old  Colony  Memorial  and  Plymouth  Bock”  is  published  by 
Geo.  F.  Andrews.  This  paper  was  formed  from  the  union  of  the  old 
Democratic  with  the  old  Whig  organ  of  the  County,  and  is  now  in  its 
forty- sixth  year. 

“The  Old  Colony  Sentinel”  is  published  every  Saturday,  by  Moses 
Bates,  Editor  and  Proprietor.  “ As  an  independent  conservative 
journal,  devoted  to  the  interests  of  the  people,  the  Sentinel  claims  to 
have  no  equal  in  the  Old  Colony.” 

The  present  officers  of  the  Pilgrim  Society  are : — E.  S.  Tobey,  of 
Boston,  President.;  Wrn.  T.  Davis,  of  Plymouth;  Vice  President ; Wil- 
liam S.  Danforth,  of  Plymouth,  llec.  and  Corresponding  Secretary ; 
Isaac  N.  Stoddard,  of  Plymouth,  Treasurer ; Lemuel  D.  Holmes,  of 
Plymouth,  Librarian ; Timothy  Gordon,  Wm.  H.  Whitman,  Thomas 
Loring,  Charles  G.  Davis,  Samuel  H.  Doten,  Charles  0.  Churchill,  Geo. 
G.  Dyer,  and  Benjamin  Hathaway,  of  Plymouth,  Samuel  Nicholson, 
Isaac  Bich,  Edward  S.  Tobey,  William  Thomas,  Nathaniel  B.  Shurt- 
leff  and  Abraham  Jackson,  of  Boston,  George  S.  Boutweli,  of  Groton, 
Ichabod  Washburn,  of  Worcester,  William  Savory,  of  Carver,  George 
P.  Hayward,  of  Hingham,  Trustees. 

The  population  of  Plymouth  in  1620,  was  101  ; in  1720,  it  was 
1206;  in  1820,  it  was  4348,  and  in  1860,  it  was  6272. 

The  schools  of  Plymouth  are  many  of  them  of  a very  high  order. 
For  several  years  the  town  has  employed  a Superintendent  of  public 
schools. 

The  corner-stone  of  a grand  National  Monument  to  the  Forefathers, 
was  laid  on  Monument  Hill,  Aug.  2d,  1859. 

In  1627,  Tsaack  De  Baisiers,  was  sent  from  Manhattan  to  visit  the 
Plymouth  Colony.  In  his  report  to  his  own  government,  he  gives  the 
following  very  interesting  sketch  of  the  appearance  of  Plymouth  at 
that  early  day: — 

“At  the  south  side  of  the  town  there  flows  down  a small  river  of  fresh 
water,  very  rapid,  but  shallow,  which  takes  its  rise  from  several  lakes 
in  the  land  above,  and  there  empties  into  the  sea ; where  in  April 
and  the  beginning  of  May  there  come  so  many  herring  from  the  sea 
which  want  to  ascend  that  river,  that  it  is  quite  surprising.  This 
river  the  English  have  shut  in  with  planks,  and  in  the  middle  with  a 
little  door,  which  slides  up  and  down,  and  at  the  sides  with  trellice 
work,  through  which  the  water  has  its  course,  but  which  they  can

also  close  with  slides.  At  the  mouth  they  have  constructed  it  with 
planks,  like  an  eel  pot,  with  wings,  where  in  the  middle  is  also  a slid- 
ing door,  and  with  trellice  work  at  the  sides,  so  that  between  the  two 
[dams]  there  is  a square  pool,  into  which  the  tish  aforesaid  come 
swimming  in  such  shoals,  in  order  to  get  up  above,  where  they  deposit 
their  spawn,  that  at  one  tide  there  are  10,000  to  12,000  fish  in  it, 
which  they  shut  off  in  the  rear  at  the  ebb,  and  close  up  the  trellices 
above,  so  that  no  more  water  comes  in ; then  the  water  runs  out 
through  the  lower  trellices  and  they  draw  out  the  tish  with  baskets, 
each  according  to  the  land  he  cultivates,  and  carry  them  to  it,  deposit- 
ing in  each  hill  three  or  four  fishes,  and  in  tltese  they  plant  their  maize, 
which  grows  as  luxuriantly  therein  as  though  it  were  the  best  manure 
in  the  world : and  if  they  do  not  lay  this  fish  therein,  the  maize  will 
not  grow!  so  that  such  is  the  nature  of  the  soil. 

“ New  Plymouth  lies  on  the  slope  of  a hill  stretching  east  towards  the 
sea-coast,  with  a broad  street  about  a cannon  shot  of  800  [yards]  long, 
leading  down  the  hill ; with  a [street]  crossing  in  the  middle,  north- 
wards to  the  rivulet,  and  southwards  to  the  land.  The  houses  are 
constructed  of  hewn  planks,  with  gardens  also  enclosed  behind  and  at 
the  sides  with  hewn  planks,  so  that  their  houses  and  court  yards  are 
arranged  in  very  ^ood  order,  with  a stockade  against  a sudden  attack  ; 
and  at  the  ends  of  the  streets  there  are  three  wooden  gates.  In  the 
centre,  on  the  cross  street,  stands  the  Governor’s  house,  before  wliicli 
is  a square  enclosure  upon  which  four  patereros  [ steen- stucken}  are 
mounted,  so  as  to  flank  along  the  streets.  Upon  the  hill,  they  have 
a large  square  house,  with  a fiat  roof,  made  6f  thick  sawn  planks, 
stayed  with  oak  beams,  upon  tlie  top  of  which  they  have  six  cannons, 
which  shoot  iron  balls  of  four  or  five  pounds,  and  command  the  sur- 
rounding country.  The  lower  part  they  use  for  their  church,  where 
they  preach  on  Sundays  and  the  usual  holidays.  They  assemble  by 
beat  of  drum,  each  with  his  musket  or  firelock,  in  front  of  the  cap- 
tain’s door  ; they  have  their  cloaks  o.n  and  place  themselves  in  order, 
three  abreast,  and  are  led  by  a sergeant  without  beat  of  drum.  Be- 
hind comes  the  Goverrkor,  in  a long  robe ; beside  him,  on  the  right 
hand,  comes  the  preacher  with  his  cloak  on,  and  on  the  left  hand  the 
captain  with  his  side  arms  and  cloak  on,  and  with  a small  cane  in  his 
hand, — and  so  they  march  in  good  order,  and  each  sets  his  arms  down 
'near  him.  Thus  they  are  constantly  on  their  guard  night  and  day. 

1 1 Their  government  is  after  the  English  form.  The  Governor  has  his 
council,  which  is  chosen  every  year  by  the  entire  community  by  elec- 
tion or  prolongation  of  term.  In  tlie  inheritance  they  place  all  the 
children  in  one  degree,  only  the  eldest  son  has  an  acknowledgement 
for  his  seniority  of  birth. 

“ They  have  made  stringent  laws- and  ordinances  upon  the  subject  of 
fornication  and  adultery,  which  laws  they  maintain  and  enforce  very

strictly  indeed,  even  among  the  tribes  which  live  amongst  them. 
They  [the  English]  speak  very  angrily,  when  they  hear  from  the 
savages  that  we  should  live  so  barbarously  in  these  respects,  and  with- 
out punishment. 

“Their  farms  are  not  so  good  as  ours,  because  they  are  more  stony, 
and  consequently  not  so  suitable  for  the  plough.  They  apportion  their 
land  according  as  each  has  means  to  contribute  to  the  Eighteen  Thous- 
and Guilders  which  they  have  promised  to  those  who  had  sent  them 
out ; whereby  they  have  their  freedom  without  rendering  an  account 
to  any  one  ; only  if  the  king  should  choose  to  send  a Governor  General 
they  would  be  obliged  to  acknowledge  him  as  sovereign  chief, 

“ The  maize  seed  which  they  do  not  require  tor  their  own  use  is  de- 
livered over  to  the  Governor,  at  three  guilders’  the  bushel,  who  in  his 
turn  sends  it  in  sloops  to  the  North  for  the  trade  in  skins  among  the 
savages ; they  reckon  one  bushel  of  maize  against  one  pound  of 
beaver’s  skin  ; in  the  first  place,  a division  is  made,  according  to  what 
each  has  contributed,  and  they  are  credited  for  the  amount  in  the  ac- 
count of  what  each  has  to  contribute  yearly  towards  the  reduction  of 
his  obligation.  Then  with  the  remainder  they  purchase  what  next 
they  require,  and  which  the  Governor  takes  care  to  provide  every 
year. 

“ They  have  better  means  of  living  than  ourselves,  because  they  have 
the  fish  so  abundant  before  their  doors.  There  are  also  many  birds, 
such  as  geese,  herons,  and  cranes,  and  other  small-legged  birds  which 
are  in  great  abundance  there  in  the  winter.  The  tribes  in  their  neigh- 
borhood have  all  the  same  customs  as  already  above  described,  only 
they  are  better  conducted  than  ours,  because  the  English  give  them 
the  example  of  better  ordinances  and  a better  life ; and  who,  also  to  a 
certain  degree,  give  them  laws,  by  means  of  the  respect  they  from  the 
very  first  have  established  amongst  them. 

“The  savages  [there]  practice  their  youth  in  labor  better  than  the 
savages  round  about  us ; the  young  girls  in  sowing  maize,  the  young 
men  in  hunting  ; they  teach  them  to  endure  privation  in  the  field  in  a 
singular  manner  to  wit : when  there  is  a youth  wjio  begins  to  approach 
manhood,  he  is  taken  by  his  father,  uncle,  or  nearest  friend  and  is 
conducted  blindfolded  into  a wilderness,  in  order  that  he  may  not 
know  the  way,  and  is  left  there  by  night  or  otherwise,  with  a bow  and 
arrows,  and  a hatchet  and  a knife.  He  must  support  himself  there 
a whole  winter,  with  what  the  scanty  earth  furnishes  at  this  season, 
and  by  hunting.  Towards  the  spring  they  come  again,  and  fetch  him 
out  of  it,  take  him  home  ^ind  feed  him  up  again  until  May.  He  must 
then  go  out  again  every  morning  with  the  person  who  is  ordered  to 
take  him  in  hand  ; he  must  go  into  the  forest  to  seek  wild  herbs  and 
roots  which  they  know  to  be  the  most  poisonous  and  bitter;  these 
they  bruise  in  water  and  press  the  juice  out  of  them,  which  he  must

drink  and  immediately  have  ready  such,  herbs  as  will  preserve  him 
from  death  or  vomiting ; and  if  lie  cannot  retain  it,  ho  must  repeat 
the  dose  until  he  can  support  it,  and  until  his  constitution  becomes 
accustomed  to  it  so  that  he  can  retain  it.  Then  he  comes  home,  and  is 
brought  by  the  men  and  women,  all  singing  and  dancing,  before  the 
Sackima;  and  if  he  has  been  able  to  stand  it  all  out  well,  and  if  he  is 
fat  and  sleek,  a wife  is  given  to  him.” 

The  following  was  the  substance  of  the  treaty  of  peace  between  the 
Colohists  and  Massasoit,  made  on  Watson’s  Hill : — 

“1.  That  neither  he  nor  any  of  his  should  injure  or  do  hurt  to  any 
of  our  people. 

“ -.  And  if  any  of  his  did  hurt  to  any  of  ours,'  he  should  send 
the  offender,  that  we  might  punish  him. 

“ d.  That  if  any  of  our  tools  were  taken  away,  when  our  people 
were  at  work,  he  should  cause  them  to  be  restored  ; and  if  ours  did 
.any  harm  to  any  of  his,  we  would  do  the  like  to  them. 

“ 4.  If  any  did  unjustly  war  against  him,  we  would  aid  him  ; if  any  did 
war  against  us,  he  should  aid  us. 

“ 5.  He  should  send  to  his  neighbor  confederates  to  certify  them  of 
this,  that  they  might  not  wrong  us,  but  might  be  likewise  comprised 
in  the*conditions  of  peace. 

“ 6.  That  when  their  men  came  to  us,  they  should  leave  their  bows 
and  arrows  behind  them,  as  we  should  do  our  pieces  when  we  came 
to  them. 

u Lastly,  that  doing  thus,  King  James  would  esteem  of  him  as  his 
friepd  and  ally. 

“ All  which  the  King  seemed  to  like  well,  and  it  was  applauded  of 
his  followers.  All  the  while  he  sat  by  the  governor  he  trembled  for 
fear.  In  his  person  he  is  a very  lusty  man,  in  his  best  years,  an  able 
body  grave  of  countenance,  and  spare  of  speech ; in  his  attire  little  or 
nothing  differing  from  the  rest  of  his  followers,  only  in  a great  chain 
of  white  bone  beads  about  his  neck ; and  at  it,  behind  his  neck,  hangs 
a little  bag  of  tobacco,  which  he  drank,*  and  gave  us  to  drink.  His 
face  was  painted  with  a sad  red,  lik^murrey,  and  oiled  both  head  and 
face,  that  he  looked  greasily.  All  his  followers  likewise  were  in  their 
faces,  in  part  or  in  whole,  painted,  some  black,  some  red,  some  yellow, 
and'  some  white,  .some  with  crosses,  and  other  antic  works  ; some  had 
skins  on  them,  and  some  naked ; all  strong,  tall  men  in  appearance. 

“ So  dJTter“?ill  was  done,  the  governor  conducted  him  to  the  brook, 
and  there  they  embraced  each  other,  and  he  departed ; we  diligently 
keeping  our  hostages.” 

This  visit  of  Massasoit’ s was  returned  by  Edward  Winslow  and 
Stephen  Hopkins.  “ They  slept  the  first  night  at  Namasket,  now

Middleboro,  and  arrived  at  Pockanocket  the  next  day.  Tiie  king  was 
sliort  of  provision,  but  procured  a couple  of  fish,  of  which  he  gave  them 
part.  They  lodged  upon  a bed  of  plank,  raised  a foot  from  the 
ground,  with  a mat  upon  them ; and  upon  the  same  lay  also  Massa- 
soit,  his  wife,  and  two  of  his  men,  and  so  crowded  them  that  they  were 
more  weary  of  their  lodgihg  than  their  journey.  They  set  out  for 
home  the  next  day,  fearing  lest  fasting,  hard  lodging,  lice,  tleas,  and 
moschetoes,  would  render  them  unable  to  return. 

In  1623,  word  came  that  Massasoit  was  sick  nigh  unto  death,  and 
Edward  Winslow,  and  John  Hambden  visited  him,  accompanied  by 
Ilobamock  as  guide.  Winslow  in  his  account  says: — 

“ In  the  way,  Ilobamock,  manifesting  a troubled  spirit,  brake  forth 
into  these  speeches:  “ JYeen.  womasu  Sagimus , neen  icomasu  Sagimus , 

&c., — My  loving  sachem,  my  loving  sachem  ! Many  have  I known, 
but  never  any  like  thee.”  And,  turning  to  me,  he  said  whilst  I lived 
I should  never  see  his  like  amongst  the  Indians ; saying  he  was  no 
liar  ; he  was  not  bloody  and  cruel,  like  other  Indians.  In  anger  and 
passion  he  was  soon  reclaimed  ; easy  to  be  reconciled  towards  such  as 
had  offended  him ; ruled  by  reason  in  such  measure  as  he  would  not 
scorn  the  advice  of  mean  men  ; and  that  he  governed  his  men  better 
with  few  strokes  than  others  did  with  many ; truly  loving  where  he 
loved ; yea,  he  feared  we  had  not  a faithful  friend  left  among  the  In- 
dians ; showing  how  he  ofttimes  restrained  their  malice,  &e.;  continu- 
ing a long  speech,  with  such  signs  of  lamentation  and  unfeigned 
sorrow,  as  it  would  have  made  the  hardest  heart  relent. 

“At  length  we  came  to  Mattapuyst,  and  went  to  the  sachimo  coniaco, 
for  so  they  called  the  sachem’s  place  though  they  call  an  ordinary 
house  uciteo ; but  Conbatant,  the  sachem,  was  not  at  home,  but  at 
Puckanokick,  which  was  some  five  or  six  miles  off.  The  squa  sachem . 
for  so  they  call  the  sachem’s  wife,  gave  us  friendly  entertainment. 
Here  we  inquired  again  concerning  Massassowat : they  thought  him 
dead,  but  knew  no  certainty.  Whereupon  I hired  one  to  go,  with  all 
expedition,  to  Puckanokick,  that  we  might  know  the  certainty  thereof, 
and  withal  to  acquaint  Conbatant  with  our  there  being.  About  half 
an  hour  before  sun-setting  the  messenger  returned,  and  told  us  that 
he  was  not  yet  dead,  though  there  was  no  hope  we  should  find  him 
living.  Upon  this  we  were  much  revived,  and  set  forward  with  all 
speed,  though  it  was  late  within  night  ere  we  got  thither.  About  two 
of  the  clock,  that  afternoon,  the  Dutchman  departed  ; so  that  in  that 
resj)ect  our  journey  was  frustrate. 

“When  we  came  thither,  we  found  the  house  so  full  of  men,  as  we 
could  scarce  get  in,  though  they  used  their  best  diligence  to  make  way 
for  us.  There  were  they  in  the  midst  of  their  charms  for  him,  making 
such  a hellish  noise  as  it  distempered  us  that  were  well,  and  therefore 
unlike  to  ca  ' him  that  was  sick.  About  him  were  «ix  or  eight  women,

who  chafed  his  arms,  legs,  and  thighs,  to  keep  heat  in  him.  When 
they  had  made  an  end  of  their  charming,  one  told  him  that  his  friends, 
the  English,  were  coiHe  to  see  him.  Having  understanding  left,  but 
his  sight  was  wholly  gone,  he  asked  who  was  come.  They  told  him 
Winsnow,  lor  they  cannot  pronounce  the  letter  /,  but  ordinarily  n in 
the  place  thereof.  He  desired  to  speak  with  me.  When  I came  to 
him,  and  they  told  him  of  it,  he  put  forth  his  hand  to  me,  which  I 
took.  Then  he  said  twice,  though  very  inwardly,  Keen  Winsnow ? 
which  is  to  say,  Art  thou  Winslow?  I answered,  Alike. , that  is,  Yes. 
Then  he  doubled  these  words:  Mattel  neen wonckanet  namen , Winsnow ! 
that  is  to  say,  0 Winslow,  I shall  never  see  thee  again. 

“Then  I called  Hobamock,  and  desired  him  to  tell  Massassowat, 
that  the  governor,  hearing  of  his  sickness,  was  sorry  for  the  same ; 
and  though,  by  reason  of  many  businesses,  he  could  not  come  himself, 
yet  he  sent  me  with  such  things  for  him  as  he  thought  most  likely  to 
do  him  good  in  this  extremity ; and  whereof  if  he  pleased  to  take,  1 
would  presently  give  him;  which  he  desired;  and  having  a confection 
of  many  comfortable  conserves,  on  the  point  of  my  knife,  I gave  him 
some,  which  I could  scarce  get  through  his  teeth.  When  it  was  dis- 
solved in  his  mouth,  he  swallowed  the  juice  of  it;  whereat  those  that 
were  about  him  much  rejoiced,  saying  he  had  not  swallowed  anything 
Til  two  days  before.  Then  I desired  to  see  his  mouth,  which  was  ex- 
ceedingly furred,  and  his  tongue  swelled  in  such  a manner  as  it  was 
not  possible  for  him  to  eat  such  meat  as  they  had,  his  passage  being 
stopped  up.  Then  I washed  his  mouth,  and  scraped  his  tongue,  and 
got  abundance  of  corruption  out  of  the  same.  After  which  I gave  him 
more  of  the  confection,  whieh  he  swallowed  with  more  readiness. 
Then  he  desired  to  drink.  I dissolved  some  of  it  in  water,  and  gave 
him  thereof.  Within  half  an  hour  this  wrought  a great  alteration  in 
him,  in  the  eyes  of  all  that  beheld  him  Presently  after  his  sight  be- 
gan to  come  to  him Then  I gave  him  more,  and  told  him  of  a 

mishap  we  had,  in  breaking  a bottle  of  drink,  which  the  governor  also 
sent  him,  saying,  if  lie  would  send  any  of  his  men  to  Patuxet,  I would 
send  for  more  of  the  same ; also  for  chickens  to  make  him  broth,  and 
for  other  things,  which  I kiiew  were  good  for  him  ; and  would  stay 
the  return  of  his  messenger,  if  he  desired.  This  he  took  marvellous 
kindly,  and  appointed  some,  who  were  ready  to  go  by  two  of  the 
clock  in  the  morning ; against  which  time  I made  ready  a letter,  de- 
claring therein  o ur 'good  success,  the  state  of  his  body,  &c.,  desiring  to 
send  such  things  as  I sent  for,  and  such  physic  as  the  surgeon  durst 
administer  to  him. 

“ He  requested  me  that,  the  day  following,  I would  take  my  piece, 
and  kill  him  some  fowl,  and  make  him  some  English  pottage,  such  as 
he  had  eaten  at  Plymouth ; which  I promised.  After,  his  stomach 
coming  to  him,  I must  needs  make  him  some  without  fowl,  before  I

went  abroad,  which  somewhat  troubled  me  ; but  being  I must  do 
somewhat,  I caused  a woman  to  bruise  some  corn,  and  take  the 
flour  from  it,  and  set  over  the  girt,  or  broken  corn,  in  a pipkin,  for 
they  have  earthen  pots  of  all  sizes.  When  the  day  broke,  we  went 
out,  it  being  now  March,  to  seek  herbs,  but  could  not  And  any  but 
strawberry  leaves,  of  which  I gathered  a handful,  and  put  into  the 
same  ; and  because  I had  nothing  to  relish  it,  I went  forth  again,  and 
pulled  up  a sassafras  root,  and  sliced  a piece  thereof,  and  boiled  it,  till 
it  had  a good  relish,  and  then  took  it  out  again.  The  broth  being  boiled,  I 
strained  it  through  my  handkerchief,  and  gave  him  at  least  a pint, 
which  he  drank,  and  liked  it  very  well.  After  this  his  sight  mended 

more  and  more ; and  he  took  some  rest ; insomuch  as  we 

with  admiration  blessed  God  for  giving  his  blessing  to  such  raw  and 
ignorant  means,  making  no  doubt  of  his  recovery,  himself  and  all  of 
them  acknowledging  us  the  instruments  of  his  preservation.  That 
morning  he  caused  me  to  spend  in  going  from  one  to  another  amongst 
those  that  were  sick  in  the  town,  requesting  me  to  wash  their  mouths 
also,  and  give  to  each  of  them  some  of  the  same  I gave  him,  saying 
that  they  were  good  folk.  This  pains  I took  with  willingness,  though 
it  were  much  oflensive  to  me,  not  being  accustomed  with  such  poison- 
ous savors. 

“ The  messengers  were  nowr  returned,  but  finding  his  stomach  come 
to  him,  he  would  not  have  the  chickens  killed,  but  kept  them  for 
breed.  Neither  durst  we  give  him  any  physic,  which  was  then  sent* 
because  his  body  was  so  much  altered  since  our  instructions  ; neither 
saw  Ave  any  need,  not  doubting  now  of  his  recovery,  if  he  were  careful. 
Many,  whilst  we  were  there,  came  to  see  him  ; some,  by  their  report, 
from  a place  not  less  than  a hundred  miles.  Upon  this  his  recovery, 
he  brake  forth  into  these  speeches : Now  I see  the  English  are  my 

friends  and  love  me  ; and  whilst  I live,  I will  never  forget  this  kind- 
ness they  have  showed  me.”  Whilst  we  were  there,  our  entertainment 
exceeded  all  other  strangers.” — Good  News  from  New  England. 

There  are  fifteen  towns  with  the  name  of  Plymouth  in  the  United 
States,  besides  “ Plymouth  Hollow,”  “ Plymouth  Meeting”  and  “ Ply- 
mouth Rock,”  Iowa. 

From  the  time  of  the  first  call  for  troops  to  suppress  Rebellion,  April 
15th,  1801,  to  the  close  of  the  war,  Plymouth  promptly  responded  to 
the  (.alls  for  men,  and  means.  She  furnished  69  three  months’  men, 
4*2  for  9 months,  23  for  1 year,  47 8 for  three  years,  and  108  for  the  Navy.

A very  large  Monumental  Association  was  formed  in  I860,  for  the 
purpose  of  erecting  a fitting  memorial  to  the  honored  dead. 

On  the  old  forest  road  leading  from  Plymouth  to  Sandwich,  may  he 
seen  the  well-known  “ Sacrifice  Rocks.”  They  are  within  the  limits  of 
Plymouth.  Tradition  asserts  that  they  have  for  ages  been  covered 
with  sticks  and  stones.  It  was  a habit  with  the  Indians  of  the  Old 
Colony , as  well  as  of  some  portion  of  our  own  unlettered  race,  in  early 
times,  in  both  hemispheres,  to  thus  mark  certain  spots  with  their  se- 
pulchral significance,  and  large  rocks  if  lying  on  their  path  were  se- 
lected for  this  purpose.  In  the  absence  of  rocks,  heaps  of  sticks  accu- 
mulating through  this  simple  rite  of  commemoration,  attested  their  re- 
gard for  the  departed.

BEFORE  the  incorporation  of  the  towm  of  Plympton,  it  was  called 
the  Western  Precinct  of  Plymouth.  The  Indian  name  was 
Wenatuxet,  and  the  principal  stream,  which  runs  through  the  town, 
is  still  called  by  that  name.  The  territory  was  incorporated  as  a pre- 
cinct, November  26th,  1695,  “ for  the  setting  up  of  the  "worship  of 
God,  and  the  support  of  a learned  and  orthodox  ministry”  and  the 
Rev.  Isaac  Cushman  began  to  preach  to  the  inhabitants  of  the  Pre- 
cinct, the  same  year.  He  was  ordained  in  1698,  and  continued  his 
ministry  here  37  years.  His  house  stood  a little  southerly  from  where 
Thomas  E.  Loring  lives.  He  was  the  son  of  Elder  Thomas  Cushman, 
of  Plymouth,  and  grandson  of  Mr.  Robert  Cushman.  He  died  in 
Plympton,  October  21st,  1732,  in  the  84th  year  of  his  age.  Before 
the  Precinct  was  incorporated,  the  first  settlers  attended  meeting  at 
Plymouth,  and  men  and  women  generally  walked  thither.  Settlements 
-were  made  here  as  early  as  1680,  and  probably  some  years  earlier. 
The  following  are  the  names  of  the  first  settlers,  within  the  present 
limits  of  Plympton.  John  Bryant,  who  came  from  Scituate  and  set-

near  where  Harvey  Fuller  lives.  Nathaniel  Harlow,  who  came  from 
Plymouth  and  settled  where  George  B.  Fuller  lives,  and  died  in  1721, 
aged  57  years. 

Samuel  Fuller,  son  of  Rev.  Samuel  Fuller,  the  first  minister  of  Mid- 
dleboro,  who  settled  on  the  farm  of  the  late  Philemon  Fuller,  and  died 
in  1728,  aged  69  years.  John,  Samuel,  Josiah,  and  Henry  Rickard, 
sons  of  Giles  Rickard  of  Plymouth.  Henry  settled  where  the  late 
Henry  L.  Thomas  lived,  and  died  in  1726,  and  the  other  three 
brothers,  settled  in  the  section  of  the  town  called  Amiasnappet.  Adam 
Wright,  son  of  Richard  Wright  of  Plymouth,  who  lived  for  a time 
near  the  site  of  Parker’s  Shovel  Works,  and  afterward,  where  Daniel 
D.  Wright  lives,  and  died  in  1724,  aged  78  years.  John,  son  of  Adam 
Wright,  was  born  here  in  1680.  Edmund  Weston,  who  came  from 
Duxbury  and  settled  where  the  late  Noah  Weston  lived,  and  died  in 
1727.  Isaac  and  George  Sampson,  who  came  from  Duxbury.  They 
first  settled  where  the  late  William  M,  Bisbee  lived,  and  the  latter, 
near  the  site  of  the  Woolen  Factory. 

Daniel  Pratt,  who  settled  near  Pratt’s  brook,  on  the  road  to  Middleboro, 
and  Mr.  Dunham,  who  lived  on  Dunham’s  neck,  near  the  residence 
of  the  late  Ephraim  Fuller.  He  lived  in  a cave,  with  a wooden  roof, 
which  took  fire  in  the  night  and  he  was  burned  to  death. 

Plympton  was  incorporated  as  a town,  June  4th,  1707.  It  then  in- 
cluded the  town  of  Carver,  about  three-quarters  of  Halifax,  and  a strip 
of  Kingston,  which  contained  1306  acres.  The  territory  of  the  town 
was  afterwards  reduced  to  nearly  its  present  limits  by  the  incorpora- 
tion of  Kingston,  in  1726 ; of  Halifax,  in  1734  ; and  of  Carver,  in  1790. 
It  originally  contained  55  square  miles  of  territory.  The  present  con- 
tents of  the  town  is  a little  less  than  14  square  miles.  The  town  con- 
tained 924  inhabitants  according  to  the  census  of  1 866. 

A few  rudely  constructed  mills,  were  built  by  the  first  settlers.  Tho

first  grist  mill  was  erected  by  Adam  Wright,  soon  after  he  settled 
here.  It  was  on  Wenatuxet  river,  a little  above  the  site  of  Parker’s 
Shovel  Works.  The  water  wheel,  with  an  upright  shaft  turned  hori- 
zontally, and  the  mill-stone  was  attached  to  the  upper  end  of  the 
shaft  and  turned  no  ofteiier  than  the  water-wheel  did.  The  mill  was 
called  a gig-mill,  and  would  grind  four  or  five  bushels  a day,  but  as 
the  inhabitants  increased,  it  was  found  to  be  insufficient  to  meet  their 
wants,  and  the  owner  built  another  mill,  on  a different  construction, 
above  the  site  of  the  Cotton  Factory,  near  where  he  then  lived.  Iron 
works  were  erected  in  Plympton,  about  the  year  1720.  Two  Forges 
wore  built  on  Wenatuxet  river,  one  on  the  site  of  Parker’s  Shovel  Works, 
owned  by  Joseph  Mullerson,  a merchant  of  Boston.  The  other  was 
built  on  the  site  of  the  Cotton  Factory,  and  was  partly  owned  by 
Joseph  Scott  of  Boston.  Scott  was  a Tory,  and  during  the  Rovolu 
tiopary  war,  the  town  took  possession  of  his  property  here,  and  the 
Forge  was  fitted  up  and  used  to  make  cannon  shot.  Another  Forge 
stood  on  the  dam  now  occupied  by  Captain  Martin  Hayward’s  Saw- 
mill. A Furnace,  also  stood  a little  westerly  from  this  Forge,  on  the 
opposite  side  of  the  road.  This  Furnace  was  built  about  the  year 
1721,  and  stood  until  the  Revolutionary  war.  Sometime  during  the 
war,  cannon  were  cast  in  this  F urnace,  but  they  nearly  all  burst  in 
proving,  and  not  long  after  the  Furnace  was  taken  down.  After  the 
close  of  the  Revolutionary  war,  for  a period  of  twenty-five  years,  the 
water  power  of  the  town  was  not  much  employed  except  in  sawing 
lumber  and  grinding  grain,  and  manufacturing  was  confined  chiefly 
to  the  domestic  purposes  of  the  inhabitants.  But  the  war  of  1812,  by 
stopping  the  importation  of  foreign  goods,  gave  manufacturing  an  im- 
pulse, and  in  that  yqp-r  the  Cotton  Factory  was  built,  and  during  the 
fifteen  years' succeeding  1812,  a Woolen  Factory  and  Rolling  Mill, 
and  three  factories  for  the  manufacture  of  cut  nails.  The  Woolen 
Factory  was  burnt  in  1845,  and  the  Rolling-mill  run  down,  a few 
years  after  it  was  built.  The  Shovel  Works  of  Parker  & Co.,  built 
where  the  Rolling-mill  stood,  about  the  year  1840,  together  with  one 
box  manufactory,  and  one  establishment  for  the  making  of  tacks,  com- 
plete the  list  of  the  principal  manufactories  of  the  town. 

Rev.  Jonathan  Parker,  was  the  second  minister  of  Plympton.  He 
was  the  son  of  Judge  Daniel  Parker  of  Barnstable,  and  was  ordained 
as  colleague  with  Rev.  Isaac  Cushman,  in  1731,  and  preached  in 
Plympton,  44  years.  He  died  April  24th,  1776,  in  the  71st  year  of  his 
age. 

Rev.  Ezra  Sampson,  was  ordained  in  1775,  as  colleague  with  Rev.

Col.  Seth  Cushing,  was  the  son  of  Seth  Cushing  of  Hingham.  He 
represented  the  town  in  the  Provincial  Congress,  which  convened  at 
Watertown,  in  1775.  He  was  often  chosen  to  represent  the  town  dur- 
ing the  Revolutionary  war.  He  died  in  1801,  in  his  78th  year. 

Elijah  Bisbee,  Esq.,  was  the  son  of  Elijah  Bisbee,  and  was  born 
September  4tli,  1716.  He  was  a Justice  of  the  Peace,  and  of  the

tion of  making  wrought  nails.  Afterward  he  moved  to  AVestport, 
and  went  into  business  there,  but  was  unsuccessful  and  failed.  He 
often  told  the  story  of  his  being  warned  out  of  Westport,  by  the  Se- 
lectmen, to  prevent  his  becoming  a public  charge  to  the  town.  From 
Westport  he  went  to  New  Bedford,  and  there  laid  the  foundation  of 
an  immense  fortune,  which  at  the  time  of  his  death  amounted  to 
some  three  millions  of  dollars.  He  died  in  New  Bedford,  in  1853,

search,  and  was  a member  of  the  New  England  Historical  and  Genea- 
ological  Society.  He  was  Town  Clerk  of  Plympton,  nearly  forty  years. 
He  was  killed  by  a fall  from  a carriage,  near  the  Meeting-house  in 
Plympton,  on  Sunday,  August  lOtli,  1851.  He  was  83  years  of  age. 

The  original  growth  and  variety  of  forest  trees  here  was  superior 
to  anything  within  the  ancient  limits  of  Plymouth,  this  fact,  together 
with  the  meadows,  were  the  principal  attractions  to  the  earlier  settlers. 
A noble  white  oak  was  cut  in  this  town,  some  years  since,  containing 
seven  tons  and  seven  feet  cff  ship-timber  and  two  cords  of  fire- wood. 

During  the  Revolutionary  war,  the  cause  of  independence  was  con- 
stantly and  earnestly  supported  by  the  town  of  Plympton.  Town 
meetings  were  often  held  to  raise  men  and  money.  At  the  one  held 
May  25th,  1776,  the  town  “voted  unanimously  independence  of  Great 
Britain.” 

The  record  of  the  town  during  the  late  war  is  of  a similar  char- 
acter. Twenty-two  Plympton  men  volunteered  for  three  months’  ser- 
vice. They  served  in  company  H,  3d  Regiment,  a Plympton  Company, 
although  not  wholly  composed  of  Plympton  men. 

Under  the  .several  calls  made  by  the  Government,  the  town  was 
credited  with  82  enlistments  of  three  years’  men,  thirteen  nine  months’ 
men,  and  with  four  men  in  the  Naval  service.  A few  of  these  were 
not  residents  of  Plympton,  and  some  of  them  re-enlisted,  and  were 
credited  to  the  town  more  than  once.  Ninety  of  the  town  residents  vol- 
unteered; of  this  number,  fifteen  were  either  killed  in  battle,  or  died  in 
service.

ROCHESTER. 


BY  CHARLES  STURTEVANT,  M.  *D. 

F)  OCHESTER,  called  by  the  Indians  Menchoisett , a large  town- 
V'  ship  of  about  fifty-eight  square  miles,  distant  10  miles  from 
New  Bedford,  and  20  from  Plymouth ; was  settled  by  persons  from 
Scituate,  Marshfield,  Plymouth  and  Sandwich,  who  in  1638,  obtained 
a grant  from  the  Provincial  Courtj  at  Plymouth  “to  locate  a township 
and  organize  a religious  Society  in  Sippican,”  an  Indian  locality  near 
the  head  of  Buzzard’s  Bay.  They  named  their  settlement  Rochester, 
from  the  town  of  that  name  in  Kent  County,  England,  whence  many 
of  them  emigrated.  These  settlers  did  not  however  actually  take  up 
their  residence  in  Rochester,  until  1651,  when  Rev.  Samuel  Arnold, 
John  and  Samuel  Hammond,  Moses  and  Aaron  Barlow,  Samuel  White, 
John  Wing,  Joseph  Dotey,  Jacob  Bumpus,  Joseph  Burge,  (or  Burgess) , 

John  Haskell,  Abraham  Holmes,  Job  Winslow,  and  Sprague, 

with  probably  others  whose  names  are  lost,  established  themselves 
and  erected  their  church  in  that  part  of  the  present  town  of  Marion, 
known  as  Little  Neck.  At  this  place  may  be  seen  to  this  date,  the 
traces  of  their  primitive  burial-place,  and  tradition  has  it  that  until 
their  antique  church  was  done,  they  worshipped  upon  and  around  a 
large  flat  rock,  since  knowm  as  Minister’s  Rock.  Some  time  about  this 
date  a few  families  from  the  old  town  of  Dartmouth,  now  Acushnet, 
who  were  friendly  to  the  Indians  in  this  vicinity,  came  and  built  a 
village  between  the  Indian  settlements  of  Sip-pbcan  and  Mat-ta-poi-

sett.  Her«  lived  an  old  chief  by  name  To-to-sin,  a friend  of  King 
Philip,  who  frequently  visited  here.  From  him.  the  locality  is  called 
To-to-sin’s,  or  Tow-ser’s  Neck. 

Radiating  from  these  centers  the  population  spread  to  the  North 
and  West,  making  the  next  village  at  Rochester  proper,  especially  at 
the  locality  since  known  as  Leonard’s  Forge,  or  Ilandv’s  Mill.  Hero 
the  first  corn-mill  in  this  part  of  the  County  was  erected  by  the  town, 
iu  1704,  having  a perpendicular  shaft,  and  attended  by  Peter  Black- 
iiier,  who  was  appointed  to  that  office  and  that  of  Town  Clerk.  The 
villages  were  yearly  augmented  by  people  .coming  from  Boston,  Salem, 
and  Plymouth,  and  in  1709,  Rev.  Timothy  Ruggles  was  ordained,  the 
first  minister  in  the  town.  In  1733,  the  settlers  in  Mattapoisett,  were 
set  ofi  as  a distinct  parish  under  the  pastoral  care  of  Rev.  Ivory  Hovey. 
His  immediate  successor  in  1772,  was  ^Lemuel  LeBaron.  These 
two  men  continued  in  the  ministry  for  100  years.  Rev.  Thomas 
Robbins,  D.  D.,  the  successor  of  Mr.  LeBaron,  possessed  in  his  day 
the  most  valuable  private  library  iu  the  state.  It  consisted  of  over 
3000  volumes  and  4000  pamphlets,  some  of  them  rare.  He  also  had 
an  extensive  collection  of  coins  and  manuscripts. 

Still  another  religious  society  in  the  North  village,  or  Snip-pa-tuit, 
was  formed  in  1748,  under  the  ministry  of  Rev.  Thomas  West.  These 
four  precincts,  agreed  in  1670,  to  hold  their  town-meetings  in  the  cen- 
tral village,  thereafter  to  be  known  as  Rochester  town,  the  other  vill- 
ages retaining  their  Indian  names  till  recently.  In  1685,  the  town 
was  incorporated,  by  the  Provincial  Court. 

In  1775,  Rochester  voted  to  sustain  the  Continental  Congress, 
whenever  they  might  see  fit  to  withdraw  their  allegiance  from  the 
crown,  and  in  the  succeeding  struggle  for  Independence,  this  town 
furnished  more  men  in  proportion  to  territory  or  inhabitants,  than  any 
other  town  in  the  Old  Colony.  In  1816,  the  spotted  fever  made  fear- 
ful ravages  in  the  village  of  Mattapoisett,  and  in  the  western  part  of 
the 'central  village.  The  population  of  the  entire  town  being  2800,  61 
heads  of  families  were  stricken  down  by  this  disease. 

The  surface  of  the  town  is  level,  the  soil  light,  sandy,  and  not  re- 
markably fertile,  but  bearing  some  fine  pine  and  cedar  forests.  There 
are  several  large  ponds,  one  of  which,  Snippatuit,  together* with  its 

• *In  1696,  a French  privateer  was  wrecked  in  Buzzard’s  Bay,  the  crew  were  carried 
prisoners  to  Boston ; the  surgeon,  Dr.  Francis  , Le  Baron,  came  to  Plymouth,  and 
having  performed  a surgical  operation,  the  town  being  destitute  of  a physician,  they 
petitioned  Lieutenant  Governor  Stoughton  for  his  liberation,  that  he  might  settle  in 
their  town.  This  was  granted,  and  he  married  Mary  Wilder,  and  he  practised  physic 
till  he  died,  at  the  age  of  36  years.  Dr.  Le  Baron  did  not  relinquish  the  Catholic 
religion,  and  was  strongly  attached  to  its  ceremonies.  He  never  retired  to  rest  with- 
out placing  the  cross  on  his  breast.  He  left  descendants,  and  all  those  of  his  name 
in  this  country  are  descended  from  him. — Thacker's  History  of  Plymouth.

of  the  people  is  chiefly  agricultural,  and  considerable  attention  is  paid 
in  the  winter,  to  the  sawing  and  preparing  for  market  of  a large 
amount  of  box-boards.  Rochester  Academy  was  built  and  opened  for 
educational  purposes  in  1839.  It  has  always  sustained  an  enviable 
reputation  as  a literary  institution  and  continues  to  flourish  under  the 
present  efficient  management  of  Miss  C.  M.  Rounseville.  The  educa- 
tional standard  has  always  been  high  in  this  town,  and  public  spirit 
has  liberally  aided  in  whatever  might  elevate  it.

SCITUATE,  like  most  of  the  towns  in  Plymouth  Colony,  had  been 
nearly  depopulated  of  natives  by  the  small-pox,  a lew  years  be- 
fore the  English  made  a permanent  settlement  on  this  coast. 

They  were  the  Matakeesetts  and  controlled  by  the  chief  or  sachem 
of  the  Massachusetts. 

►Several  places  in  the  town  still  retain  the  ancient  aboriginal  names, 
viz:  Musquashcut  pond  and  Conihassett.  The  name  of  the  town  is  the 
aboriginal  name,  derived  from  the  brook  that  falls  into  the  harbor.  It 
was  called  by  the  Indians,  Satuit,  and  the  name  of  the  town  in  the 
earliest  records  in  1633,  was  Satuit ; shortly  after  it  was  written  Seteat, 
then  Cittewat,  and  about  1640,  the  present  name  Scituate  was  settled. 
The  settlers  at  Scituate,  extinguished  the  Indian  title  by  purchase  as 
per  deed,  dated  June,  1653,  from  the  chief  of  the  Matakeesets,  signed 
by  Josias  Wampatuck,  and  given  to  Mr.  Timothy  Hatherly,  Mr.  James 
Cud  worth,  Mr.  Joseph  Tilden,  Humphrey  Turner,  William  Hatch, 
John  Hoar  and  James  Torrey,  for  the  proper  use  and  behoof  of  the 
inhabitants  of  the  town  of  Scituate.  Prior  to  1640,  there  was  a deed 
given,  which  was  subsequently  destroyed.  In  the  year  1727,  a part  of 
Scituate  on  the  southerly  side  of  the  third  herring  brook,  was  incor- 
porated by  the  name  of  Hanover. 

In  1849,  the  southerly  part  of  the  town  of  Scituate,  was  incorporated 
by  the  name  of  South  Scituate. 

Scituate  extends  about  eight  miles  on  the.  sea  shore,  including  the 
beach  on  the  east,  and  the  glades  on  the  west.  Nearly  in  the  centre 
of  this  line  is  Scituate  Harbor. 

It  affords  about  ten  feet  of  water  in  ordinary* tides.  Here  are  several

form  the  harbor,  are  Crow  point  on  the  south-east,  and  Cedar  point  on 
• the  nortlpwest.  On  this  latter,  a Light-house  was  erected  in  1811.  At 
the  harbor  the  principal  business  earned  on  is  fishing,  mossing,  lum- 
ber, grain  and  flour.  Two  regular  packets  run  between  Boston  and 
Scituate.

The  earliest  notice  of  a settlement  at  Scituate,  was  in  1628,  by  Wil- 
liam Grillson.  Anthony  Annable,  Thomas  Bird,  Nathaniel  Tilden,  Ed- 
ward Poster,  Ilenry  Powley,  called  “ men  of  Kent,”  having  come  from 
that  county  in  England. 

A village  was  laid  out  Aug.  2nd,  1633.  The  principal  street  was 
called  “ Kent  street it  led  from 'the  bridge  as  it  now  lies,  at  the  har- 
bor, easterly  to  the  third  clitf.  The  first  lot  was  at  the  corner,  formed 
by  Kent  Street,  and  the  road  now  called  Central  Street,  which  runs 
parallel  with  Satuit  brook.  This  lot  was  assigned  to  Edward  Foster, 
and  his  house  stood  on  the  premises,  and  is  the  same  place  occu-

When  fond  recollection  presents  them  to  view  !— 

The  orchard,  the  meadow,  the  deep-tangled  wild-wood, 

And  every  loved  spot  which  my  infancy  knew! 

The  wide-spreading  pond,  and  the  mill  that  stood  by  it ; 

The  bridge,  and  the  rock  where  the  cataract  fell ; 

The  cot  of  my  father,  the  dairy-house  by  it, 

And  e’en  the  rude  bucket  that  hung  in  the  well — 

The  old  oaken  bucket,  the  iron-bound  bucket, 

The  moss-covered  bucket  that  hung  in  the  well.”

Torrey’s  History  of  Scituate,  says: — “Scituate,  indebted  to  the  sub- 
stantial character  of  some  of  its  founders,  many  of  whom  it  is  evident, 
came  chiefly  from  Kent,  in  England,  soon  became  a respectable  town, 
early  taking  the  lead  in  rates  and  levies  of  men,  which  superiority  it 
maintained  to  the  latest  annals  of  the  Colony.  Are  yon  a Kentish 
man,  or  a man  of  Kent?  has  its  historical  value,  as  it  respects  origin.” 

“ Dean  ” gives  this  account  of  the  Indian  attack  on  Scituate  : — 

“They  came  into  Scituate  by  the  ‘Indian  path,’  so  called,  which  led 
from  Scituate  to  the  Matakeeset  settlements  at  ludian  head  ponds,  by 
‘the  Cornet’s  mill,’  on  the  third  Herring  brook,  near  the  residence  of 
the  late  Major  Winslow.  This  saw-mill  they  burnt ; and  tradition  tells 
that  they  wounded  and  burnt  a man  in  it;  hut  this  is  doubtful.  They 
then  proceeded  to  Capt.  Joseph  Sylvester’s,  and  burnt  his  house.  It 
stood  north  of  the  Episcopal  Church  hill,  (now  known  as  such.)  and 
nearly  on  the  same  spot  where  stands  the  mansion  of  Mr.  Samuel

Waterman.  There  was.  a garrison  of  twelve  men  at  Joseph  Barstow’s, 
three-fourtlis  of  a mile  south  of  Capt.  Sylvester’s,  which  they  probably 
avoided,  and  proceeded  down  towards  the  town,  burning  as  they  went. 
But,  unfortunately,  we  are  able  only  to  mention  a few  of  the  houses  so 
destroyed,  which  we  find  incidentally  mentioned  in  our  town  record's. 
The  next  house  which  they  burnt  (of  which  we  have  certain  record) 
was  William  Blackmore’s.  It  stood  where  stands  the  house  of  the  late 
Capt.  Elijah  Curtis,  forty  rods  west  of  the  head  of  the  lane  that  leads 
to  Union  bridge,  and  on  the  north  side,  of  the  street.  William  Black- 
more  was  killed  that  day,  but  whether  in . attempting  to  defend  his 
house  or  not,  and  what  was  the  fate  of  his  family,  we  have  not  learned, 
probably,  however,  they  had  escaped  to  the  ‘ block- house  ’ on  the  bank 
of  the  river,  but  fifty  rods. distant.  The  block-house  was  attacked,  but 
not  carried;  John  James,  however,  whose  house  was  near  the  block- 
house, received  a mortal  wound,  lingering  about  six  weeks,  and  died. 
The  Indians  then  hastened  forward  to  attack  the  principal  garrison  at 
Charles  ^tockbridge’s.  Their  path  may  be  traced  directly  onward 
towards  this  garrison.  The  house  of  Nicholas  (the  Sweede)  was  the 
next  burnt,  which  stood  on  a small  hill  thirty  rods  north-east  of  Par- 
ker lane.  We  observe  that  the  town  voted  the  next  year  to  allow  him 
three  pounds  towards  rebuilding  his  house.  In  their  further  progress 
they  doubtless  burnt  other  houses,  as  Wm.  Parker’s,  Robert  Stet 
son,  Jr.’s,  Standlake’s,  Sutliffe’s,  Holmes’,  John  Buck’s  and  others  were 
nigh  their  path,  but  unfortunately  the  committee’s  report  to  Gov.  Wins- 
low is  not  extant,  at  least  in  full.  They  passed  over  Walnut  Tree  hill, 
on  the  northward  of  the  late  Judge  William  Cushing’s,  and  entered 
Ewell’s  house,  which  stood  at  the  ‘turn  of  the  road,’  which  spot  may 
be  known  in  modern  times  by  saying  it  was  nearly  midway  between 
Judge  Cushing’s  mansion  and  farm-house.  Ewell’s  wife  was  alone, 
save  an  infant  grandchild,  John  Northey,  sleeping  in  the  cradle;  the 
house  being  situated  beneath  a high  hill,  she  had  no  notice  of  the  ap- 
proach of  the  savages  until  they  were  rushing  down  the  hill  towards 
the  house.  In  the  moment  of  alarm  she  fled  towards  the  garrison, 
which  wg,s  not  more  than  sixty  rods  distant,  and  either  through  a mo- 
mentary forgetfulness,  or  despair,  or  with  the  hope  of  alarming  the 
garrison  in  season,  she  forgot  the  child.  She  reached  the  garrison  in 
safety.  The  savages  entered  her  house,  and  stopping  only  to  take  the 
bread  from  the  oven  which  she  was  in  the  act  of  putting  in,  when  she 
was  alarmed,  then  rushed  forward  to  assault  the  garrison.  After  they 
had  become  closely  engaged,  Ewell’s  wife  returned  by  a circuitous 
path,  to  learn  the  fate  of  the  babe,  and,  to  her  happy  surprise,  found 
it  quietly  sleeping  in  the  cradle  as  she  had  left  it,  and  carried  it  safely 
to  the  garrison.  In  a few  hours  the  house  was  burnt.  There  was  a con- 
siderable village  around  this  place,  and  the  houses  of  Northey,  Palmer, 
Russell,  Thomas  King,  Jr.,  and  some  others  were  doubtless  burnt,

though,  we  are  not  able  to  quote*  record  for  it.  That  Ewell’s  house 
was  burnt,  we  learn  from  liis  will,  in  which  it  was  incidentally  men- 
tioned. Tile  garrison-house  of  Stock  bridge  was  palisadoed  on  three 
sides,  the  fourth  being  defended  by  the  mill-pond.  Besides  this  there 
was  a small  outwork  near  the  mill,  on  a little  island  between  the  mill- 
stream  and  the  waste-way,  where  a blacksmith’s  shop  has  for  several 
years  stood.  It  was  thought  to  be  a point  of  importance  to  the  settle- 
ment to  defend  these  mills.  Here  the  Indians  fought  several  hours, 
made  many  efforts  to  firo  the  Buildings,*  and  sustained  heavy  losses, 
from  the  well-directed  shot  from  the  garrison.  They  chiefly  occupied 
the  ground  at  the  south  end  of  the  mill-dam.  They  were  not  repulsed 
until  night  close,  when  nearly  the  whole  force  of  the  town  that  was 
left  at  home  was  collected  for  the  purpose.  Lieut.  Buck  had  muster- 
ed all  the  men  below,  and  the  veteran  Cornet  Stetson,  had  descended 
the  river,  with  what  people  could  be  raised  in  the  south  part  of  the 
town.  Unfortunately,  Capt  John  Williams,  with  thirty  Scituate  men, 
was  absent,  ‘ranging  the  woods’  about  Namasket,  (Middleborough).” 


T HIE  town  of  South  Scituate  was  incorporated  in  1849.  It  was 


originally  a par*-  of  the  town  of  Scituate,  so  that  really  a his- 
tory of  Scituate  must  be,  to  a great  extent,  a history  of  South  Scituate. 

Settlements  were  made  on  the  coasfi  earlier  than  in  that  part  of  the 
town  now  within  the  limits  of  South  Scituate.  Cornet  Robert  Stetson, 
was  probably  the  first  person  who  permanently  settled  in  South 
Scituate.  He  selected  a beautiful  plain  near  the  river,  and  received 
a grant  of  a'large  tract  of  land,  as  early  as  1634. 

His  house,  as  nearly  as  can  be  ascertained,  occupied  the  site  of 
that  now  owned  by  Mr.  Clark  Sampson ; an  unfailing  spring  of  the 
purest  water,  gushes  forth  a few  rods  from  the  house,  as  it  did  more 
than  two  hundred  years  ago,  having  been,  no  doubt,  one  of  the  strong 
attractions  which  induced  the  early  settler  to  make  this  spot  his  home. 
History  speaks  of  him  as  possessed  of  considerable  wealth,  an  enter- 
prising and  valuable  man  in  the  plantation,  a deputy  to  court,  a cornet 
of  the  first  light  horse  corps  raised  in  the  Colony,  a member  of  the

Council  of  war,  a Colony  Commissioner  for  settling  tlie  patent  line,  in 
short,  he  lived  long  and  left  a good  name  at  last.  In  1656,  he,  with 
others  erected  a saw-mill  on  the  third  Herring  Brook.  Remains  of 
the  dam,  may  now  be  seen  near  the  residence  of  Samuel  Tolman,  jr. 
This  mill  was  burned  by  the  Indians,  May  20th,  1676,  who  came  into 
Scituate  from  Hingham,  where  the  day  before  they  had  made  depre- 
dations, and  killed  one  man.  They  then  passed  on,  and  burnt  a house 
situated  nearly  on  the  spot  where  now  stands  that  of  Lemuel  0.  Wa- 
terman, Esq.  When  preparing  a site  for  a new  mill,  a few  rods  below 
the  old  dam,  in  1838,  the  workmen  discovered  pieces  of  the  old  mill, 
completely  charred,  and  in  a perfect  state  of  preservation,  which  are 
now  in  the  possession  of  Col.  Samuel  Tolman. 

South  Scituate,  affords  remarkable  instances  of  longevity,  in  the 
highly  respectable  name  of  Copeland.  Joseph  Copeland  came  into 
Scituate  in  1730,  and  left  twelve  children,  whose  average  age  was 
eighty-six  years.  One  of  the  daughters,  Rhoda,  the  wife  of  Michael 
Ford,  died  at  the  age  of  ninety- three,  from  injuries  occasioned  by  a 
fall.  Five  of  her  children-  are  now  living,  the  youngest  of  whom  is 
more  than  eighty-two  years  of  age.  South  Scituate  is  separated  from 
the  town  of  Marshfield  by  the  North  River,  which  has  been  noted  for 
ship-building ; indeed,  it  may  well  be  called  the  nursery  of  ship- 
builders. North  River  ships  were  deemed  the  first-class,  both  as  to 
beauty,  and  durability,  being  constructed  entirely  of  the  tough 
oaks  of  this  vicinity.  Many  of  the  whale  ships  of  Nantucket  and 
• New  Bedford  have  been  built  here,  rating  from  300  to  400  tons.  Mr. 
William  Delano,  built  a merchantman  in  1812,  of  500  tons,  which  was 
at  that  time  one  of  the  largest.  Scarce  a ship-yard  or  Navy-vard,  can 
be  visited  on  our  coast,  where  many  workmen  may  not  be  found 
whose  ancestors  were  employed  at  the  North  River.  Especially  may 
they  be  found  in  Medford,  Chelsea,  and  East  Boston.  Curtis,  Foster, 
Stetson,  Taylor,  James,  Tilden,  Delano,  and  many  others,  were  here, 
all  familiar  names.  Edward  Delano,  late  Naval  Constructor,  at 
Charlestown,  and  Benjamin  Delano,  now  Naval  Constructor,  at  Brook- 
lyn, N.  Y.,  are  sons  of  Mr.  William  Delano  above  named,  and  were 
born  in  South  Scituate.  This  business,  once  so  flourishing,  is  now  al- 
most entirely  discontinued,  partly  because  material  is  scarce,  aud  larger 
ships  are  demanded,  but  chiefly  on  account  of  the  increasing  obstruc- 
tions at  the  mouth  of  the  river.  An  unsuccessful  attempt  was  made 
a few  years  since  to  compel  the  waters  to  pass  to  the  sea  by  au  artifi- 
cial channel. 

South  Scituate  has  been  prompt  in  answering  the  calls  of  the  gov- 
ernment for  men,  during  the  late  terrible  but  glorious  war.  The  re- 
cruiting officers  report  from  the  records  of  the  Provost  Marshall,

It  would  give  us  much  pleasure,  would  the  limits  of  the  present

by  wounds,  or  are  suffering  from  disease  contracted  in  the  service.  Let 
us  see  to  it,  that  our  care  for  them,  and  the  widows  and  orphans  of 
the  fallen,  and  our  measure  of  gratitude  for  the  services  of  our  sol- 
diers, equal,  if  possible,  the  magnitude  of  the  blessings  their  suffer- 
ings have  brought;  remembering  while  we  review  the  history  of  our 
towns  and  of  our  country,  that  whatever  of  prosperity  the  future  his- 
torian may  record,  is  based  upon  that  universal  liberty,  which  their 
sacrifices  have  established. 


WABJUIIAM. 

LN  1838,  Silvanus  Bourne,  Esq.,  furnished  a series  of  very  interest- 
ing articles  to  one  of  the  County  papers,  concerning  the  history 
of  this  town.  He  says : — The  east  part  of  the  town,  known  as  the 
u Agawam  purchase,”  lay  in  the  township  of  Plymouth,  and  the  west 
part  belonged  to  Rochester,  until  in  1739,  these  two  tracts  were  incor- 
porated as  the  town  of  Wareham,  the  name  being  borrowed  from  an 
old  English  town,  once  of  some  note.  In  1827,  Wareham  was  enlarged 
by  the  addition  of  a slice  of  Plymouth  and  Carver,  known  as  Tihonet. 

From  1739,  until  1824,  the  people  of  the  West  end,  and  the  inhabi- 
tants of  Agawam,  were  mutually  jealous  of  each  others’  rights,  so  much 
so  that  two  constables,  and  two  collectors,  were  always  appointed,  and 
even  two  sets  of  tax  bills  were  always  made. 

Agawam  probably  derives  its  name  from  one  of  the  Massachusetts 
tribes  of  that  name.  There  are  several  Agawains  in  the  State,  and  it 
is  supposed  that  some  one  of  these  was  the  abiding  place  of  the  tribe, 


112 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


and  that  the  others  were  temporary  homes  of  parts  of  the  same  tribe. 
This  tract  was  leased  in  1678,  for  seven  years,  and  in  16.82,  was  sold 
by  the  town  of  Plymouth,  in  order  to  raise  funds  for  building  a new 
meeting-house  in  that  town.  The  purchasers  were  ten  in  number,  in- 
cluding John  Chubbuck,  Samuel.  Bates  and  Jo^n  Fearing. 

These  early  settlers  began  their  colony,  as  though  they  were  a sepa- 
rate nation,  laying  out  a mill  lot,  pound  and  grave  yard,  and  would 
undoubtedly  have  built  a pillory  and  whipping-post,  but  Plymouth 
was  careful  to  reserve  in  the  deed  of  sale,  jurisdiction  of  the  territory. 
Two  lots  of  land  and  one  of  meadow,  were  reserved  for  the  ministry, 
in  1701. 

The  first  highway  run  nearly  East  and  West,  crossing,  the  streams 
at  the  head  of  tide  water.  Other  ways  led  to  •the  house  of  every  set- 
tler, some  of  them  open,  and  some  through  gates  and  bars. 

The  land  southerly  of  Agawam,  is  indented  with  many  coves,  form- 
ing numerous  peninsulas,  or  necks,  as  they  are  here  called.  There  are 
also  numerous  islands,  among  them  Wickett’s,  named  for  the  Indian 
who  owned  it ; Ousett,  on  which  the  credulous  believed  money  was 
buried,  and  where  lights  were  formerly  seen  on  stormy  nights,  and 
even  the  money  chest  has  been  seen  by  curious  searchers ! Little 
Bird,  Tims,  besides  the  cluster  of  islands  in  Little  Harbor.  There  are. 
two  beaches  made  by  the  waves  of  Buzzard’s  Bay,  and  the  extensive 
flats  yield  many  shell  fish.  There  are  several  ponds,  and  numerous 
valuable  streams  of  water,  in  this  section,  among  them  Bed  Brook,  col- 
ored by  the  iron-oar  bed  over  which  it  passes,  and  the  Agawam 
river,  a valuable  manufacturing  stream.  The  wood  is  mainly  pitch- 
pine. 

It  is  not  known  at  what  time  the  West  end  of  the  town  was  first 
settled.  The  lands  were  granted  by  the  Virginia  mode,  called  siting- 
ling.  To  each  proprietor  was  given  a warrant  stating  that  he  was  en- 
titled to  a certain  quantity  of  land.  This  warrant  he  could  assign  or 
locate  it  where  he  pleased,  in  one  or  more  lots,  or  in  any  shape.  Of 
course,  all  aimed  to  secure  the  best  land,  and  one  surveyor,  not  al- 
ways knowing  what  another  had  done,  some  lots  were  often  more  than 
once  covered,  which  led  to  litigation  and  trouble.  There  were  also 
left  many  odd  strips  called  gores. 

At  the  time  of  the  incorporation  of  Wareham,  July,  1789,  it  is  not 
known  what  its  population  was.  At  that  time,  every  town  containing 
forty  qualified  voters,  was  entitled  to  a representative,  but  for  forty 
years  after  incorporation,  the  town  voted  that  they  were  not  qualified 
to  send,  and  when  they  wished  to  be  heard  at  General  Court,  they 
sent  an  Agent  instead  of  a Representative. 

In 'the  French  War  of  1757-8,  Wareham  sent  nine  of  her  citizens 
to  assist  in  the  capture  of  Cape  Breton,  and  Samuel  Besse  lost  his  life 
there.  Five  others  joined  the  Northern  army,  to  capture  Canada,

besides  Jo.  Joseph,  Sol.  Joseph  and  Jabez  Wickett,  three  Indians  of 
th<*  place,  who  fought  against  the  hostile  Indians. 

Previous  tu  the  Revolutionary  war,  as  early  as  Jau.  18,  1778,  at  the 
request  of  the  town  of  Boston,  a town  meeting  was  held  in  Wareham 
to  consider  of  matters  of  grievances  the  Provinces  were  under.  Capt. 
Josiah  Carver  was  moderator.  In  Feb.  1771,  strong  resolutions  were 
adopted,  insisting  upon  the  rights  of  British  Freedom.  In  Jan.  1770, 
they  voted  to  allow  every  minute  man  Is,  4d,  per  week,  and  refused 
to  make  any  tax  under  the  King’s  authority,  but  to  pay  the  Province 
tax  already  made  to  Dr.  Andrew  Mackie,  with  instructions  that  he 
keep  it  till  the  town  otherwise  order.  On  March  17,  they  voted  to 
purchase  six  guns  for  the  town,  and  instructed  Nathan  Bassett  to  put 
the  other  guns  in  repair  and  make  bayonets  for  them. 

About  the  time  of  the  battle  of  Lexington,  it  was  rumored  that  the 
King’s  troops  were  at  Marshfield,  laying  the  country  waste.  Forty  min- 
ute -men  immediately  left  for  Plymouth,  under  the  command  of  Capt. 
Israel  Fearing,  Lieuts.  Ebenezer  Chubbuck  and  Barnabus  Bates. 

Eight  men  served  two  months;  eighteen  enlisted  for  six  months,  and 
were  stationed  along  shore.  During  their  term  of  service*  they  went 
to  an  alarm  at  N&shuana,  rowing  themselves  in  two  whale  boats. 
Nine  were  in  the  army  near  Boston,  eight  months,  making  thirty-six 
men  sent  into  service  the  first  year,  from  a town  without  voters  enough 
to  send  a representative.  In  1770,  eighteen  men  enlisted,  and  in  1777, 
fourteen  men  enlisted  for  three  years  or  the  war,  eight  men  enlisted 
for  two  months,  to  serve  in  Rhode  Island,  and  in  August,  nearly  every 
man  in  the  militia  went  on  the  secret  expedition  to  Newport. 

In  Sep.,  1777,  the  town  voted  £38  for  100  lbs.  of  powder,  and  in 
Nov., £100  to  supply  the  families  of  Continental  soldiers  with  such  ar- 
ticles as  they  should  need.  In  Sept.,  1778,  the  British  burnt  the  ship- 
ping at  New  Bedford,  and  our  militia  turned  out  under  Maj.  Israel 
Fearing,  and  all  concur  in  saying  that  he  conducted  the  defences  on 
the  east  side  of  the  river,  with  good  judgment  and  bravery,  the  fire  of 
his  men  warding  off  a night  attack.*  The  militia  went  twice  to  Fal- 
mouth. Sep.  21st,  1780,  voted  £80.  17s.  hard  money,  for  beef  to  send 
to  the  army.  Jan.  1781,  voted  to  have  a lottery  to  raise  $'280,  hard 
money,  to  raise  soldiers  with.  Eighty-six  different  individuals  did  ser- 
vice in  the  army,  13  of  whom  died.  . 

“During  the  Revolutionary  war,  the  operations  of  our  patriotic  citi- 
zens were  not  confined  to  the  land.  Capt.  Barzilla  Besse  went  out 
privateering  under  a commission  from  the  State,  in  an  armed  sloop, 
and  took  one  prize.  He,  together  with  John  Gibbs,  and  some  others 
of  his  crew,  left  liis  vessel  at  Nantucket,  and  went  on  board  Capt.  Dim- 
mick  of  Falmouth,  as  volunteers,  in  a wood  sloop  borrowed  at  that 
place  for  the  occasion,  and  running  down  towards  the  enemy’s  vessel, 
which  was  a shaving  mill  mounting  six  swivels.  Dimmick  was  ordered 

15

to  strike;  he  showed  submission'— but  in  running’  under  her  stern,  he 
put  his  bowsprit  over  the  enemy’s  t aft  rail,  and,  calling*  upon  his  men* 
they  sprang  on  board,  killed  the  English  captain,  and  took  his  vessel 
in  a few  minutes. 

“Also  a 10  gun  sloop,  named  the  Hancock,  owned  by  John  Carver, 
Nathan  Bassett,  and  others,  was  fitted  out  from  this  place  as  a priva- 
teer, commanded  by  James  Southard.  The  first  cruise,  they  went  to 
the  West  Indies  and  took  two  prizes.  The  second  cruise,  they  took 
*2  Grand  Bank  fishermen,  both  brigs,  and  brought  them  into  Wareham. 

“The  enemy  took  from  our  citizens  the  schooner  lion,  coming  from 
the  West  Indies,  with  a load  of  salt — the  schooner  Desire,  going  to 
Brazil,  and  a sloop  which  was  built  for  a privateer,  and  performed  one 
unsuccessful  cruise  in  that  capacity,  but  was  afterwards  sent  to  Turks 
♦Island  for  salt,  and  was  taken  while  returning.” 

In  1784,  voted  to  vendue  the  colors  belonging  to  the  town.  This 
vote  is  now  much  to  be  regretted. 

Previous  to  the  war  of  1812,  commerce  flourished  and  many  vessels 
were  built  at  the  Narrows.  We  had  but  one  man  in  the  regular 
army,  Joseph  Saunders,  and  he  was  killed  at  the  battle  of  New  Or- 
leans. 13  of  our  sloops  were  captured  by  the  enemy,  among  them: — 

“The  sloop  Polly,  Capt.  Barrows,  was  taken  on  the  9th  of  June, 
1814,  off  Westport.  The  Captain  ransomed  her  for  $200,  and  came 
home  to  get  the  money,  leaving  Moses  Bumpus  and  James  Miller 
with  the  British  until  his  return. 

“The  same  day,  the  sloop  Polly  was  re-taken,  by  a party  fitted  out 
from  Westport;  but  the  two  young  men,  Bumpus  and  Miller,  had  been 
taken  on  board  the  brig-of-war,  Nimrod,  and  by  their  aid,  as  was  sup- 
posed, in  a few  days,  she  run  up  the  Bay  to  West’s  Island ; here  they 
landed,  and  took  Samuel  Besse  on  board  for  a pilot,  as  he  says,  by 
force,  and  compelled  him  to  pilot  the  brig  up  the  Bay.  On  the  next 
day,  June  13th,  she  was  seen  by  Ebenezer  Bourne,  about  nine  o’clock 
A.  M.,  off  Mattapoisett,  standing  up  the  Bay;  and  at  ten,  came  to  an 
anchor  about  four  miles  southerly  of  Bird  Island  Light ; and  immedi- 
ately manned  six  barges,  which  formed  a line,  two  abreast.  Each  barge 
had  a lai’ge  lateen  sail,  and  was  rowed*  by  six  oars,  double  manned, 
with  a fair  wind  and  strong  flood  tide,  and  steered  for  Wareham. 
Bourne  left  his  work,  and  ran  to  his  boat,  then  lying  at  Crooked  River, 
and  sailed  across  to  the  lower  end  of  the  neck,  where  he  took  land, 
and  in  twenty  minutes  from  the  time  he  left  home,  gave  information  to 
the  Selectmen,  then  assembled  on  other  business,  in  the  lower  house, 
at  the  Narrows  village.  He  and  they  passed  quickly  through  the  vil- 
lage, giving  the  alarm  to  the  citizens,  until  they  arrived  at  the  house 
of  Benjamin  Fearing,  Esq.  Hero  the  Selectmen  ordered  Maj.  William 
Barrows  to  assemble  the  men  and  prepare  their  guns  as  fast  as  possi- 
ble— then  pass  down  the  Narrows,  and  they  would  forward  them  am-

munition  as  soon  as  it  could  be  procured  from  the  town  stores,  which 
were  kept  by  Wadsworth  Crocker,  Esq.  Bourne  upon  his  first  arrival 
at  Fearing’ s,  meeting  with  a gentleman,  upon  a*  smart  horse,  bound 
towards  Agawam,  requested  him  to  quicken  his  speed,  and  stop  at  the 
next  public  house,  then  kept  by  Oapt.  Israel  Fearing,  and  tell  him  to 
call  out  his  men,  and  proceed  forthwith  to  the  east  side  of  the  Nar- 
rows— this  the  stranger  promised,  and  performed.  Maj.  Barrows  col- 
lected 12  men  with  arms,  which  he  paraded;  and  the  minister,  Rev. 
Noble  Everett,  came  from  the  Selectmen  with  a keg  of  powder,  and 
balls.  But  while  they  were  loading  their  guns,  Wm.  Fearing,  Esq., 
and  Jonathan  Iteed  came  to  the  Major,  and  told  him  to  put  his  arms 
and  ammunition  out  of  sight,  for  they  had  made  a treaty  with  the  en- 
emy, and  had  agreed  to  spare  private  property.  The  guns  were  hid 
under  Oapt.  Jeremiah  Bumpus’  porch,  and  the  keg  of  powder  left  near 
his  house.  The  British  came  to  the  turn  of  the  channel — here  set  a 
white  flag,  and  proceded  to  the  lower  -wharf,  where  the  marines  land- 
ed— being  about  200  in  number — paraded  on  the  wharf,  and  set  a sen- 
tinel up,  u the  high  land  back  of  the  village,  with  orders  to  let  no  citi- 
zen pass  from  the  village ; — and  about  this  time,  F earing  and  Reed 
approached  the  enemy  with  a white  handerchief  upon  a cane,  and 
made*  the  treaty  aforesaid.  The  enemy  then  marched  up  the  street,  de- 
taching sentries  upon  the  high  land,  at  convenient  distances,  until  they 
arrived  at  the  Cotton  Factory.  This,  they  set  on  fire  by  shooting  a 
Congreve  rocket  into  a post  in  the  middle  of  the  first  story,  and  re- 
turned, taking  the  arms  and  powder  at  Capt:  Bumpus’  house,  and 
threatened  to  burn  the  house,  if  the  town  stores  were  not  surrendered, 
which  they  thought  were  there. 

“About  this  time,  four  schooners  belonging  to  Falmouth,  and  one  be- 
longing to  Plymouth,  which  had  put  into  this  port,  for  safety,  were  set 
on  fire  by  the  men  left  with  the  barges; — these,  and  the  Factory,  as 
they  asserted,  not  being  private  property.  As  they  passed  up,  they 
called  at  Wm.  Fearing’s  store,  took  something  to  drink,  and  went  into 
his  kitchen,  took  a brand  of  fire,  and  proceeded  to  his  ship-yard,  im- 
mediately in  front  of  his  house,  and  here  set  fire  to  a new  brig,  nearly 
finished,  upon  the  stocks,  belonging  to  said  Fearing,  he  remonstrating 
and  reminding  them  of  their  treaty,  but  they  asserting  that  she  was 
built  for  a privateer,  put  her  well  on  fire,  so  that  she  burnt  to  ashes. 
They  fired  also  a ship  and  brig  lying  at  the  wharf,  and  five  sloops,  ail 
of  which,  as  well  as  the  Cotton  Factory,  were  put  out.  Six  vessels 
were  not  set  on  fire.  They  next  took  twelve  men  as  hostages,  to  pre- 
vent our  citizens  from  firing  upon  them — and  hoisting  a white  flag,  and 
saying  if  a gun  was  fired  the  hostages  would  be  massacred,  embarked, 
having  tarried  on  shore  about  two  hours.  About  this  time,  Capt.  Is- 
rael Fearing  assembled  12  men  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  Narrows, 
and  showed  fight.  One  of  the  barges  dropped  over  that  way,  and  the 


118 


PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


Narrows  citizens  begged  him  not  to  fire,  as  a treaty  had  been  made 
and  hostages  taken  to  insure  its  performance — whereupon  lie  fell 
back,  to  watch  their  further  movements,  kept  his  men  assembled,  but 
as  the  hostages  were  not  given  up  until  they  passed  below  him,  he  did 
not  fire,  and  the  enemy  departed  in  peace,  landing  our  citizens  cn 
Cromeset  Point.  The  barges  formed  a line,  fired  a Congreve  rocket 
into  the  air,  fired  a swivel  lrom  the  bow  of  each  barge,  gave  three 
cheers,  and  proceeded  leisurely  to  the  brig;  landed  Besse  upon  West’s 
Island,  and  the  young  men  at  North  Falmouth.  Besse  was  taken  up 
and  examined  before  a magistrate,  in  New  Bedford,  and  aquitted.  Mil- 
ler and  Bumpus  were  examined  and  committed  to  prison  for  further 
examination  and  trial : and  after  being  imprisoned  about  three  months, 
quitted,  and  both  shipped  on  board  of  a privateer,  where 
pus  was  killed,  and  Miller  lost  a leg  by  a cannon  ball.  The  whole 
damage  done  by  the  expedition  as  estimated  at  the  time,  was  825,000.” 

The  first  settled  minister  was  Rowland  Thatcher,  ordained  in  1740, 
died  1773.  Bis  successors  have  been  Josiah  Cotton,  1774:  Noble 
Everett,  1784-1820;  Daniel  Hemmenway.  1821-182s;  Samuel  Nott 
ordained  1829;  Homer  Barrows,  and  Rev.  T.  F.  Claiy,  present  pastor. 
In  1 830,  the  First  Christian  Society  was  formed,  but  not  now  in  operation. 
The  building  on  High  Street,  was  purchased  by  the  Catholics,  about 
1865,  and  is  now  occupied  by  them.  In  1830,  the  M.  E.  Society  was 
formed,  and  soon  after  a church  built  near  the  Center.  Services  have 
not  been  held  there  regularly,  of  late  ; — a good  part  of  the  membership 
being  at  Agawam,  meetings  are  held  there. 

In  17=80,  the  town  paid  their  minister  8240  per  Sabbath— in  the 
depreciated  currency  of  the  times.  The.  town  and  parish  records  have 
been  entered  in  separate  books,  since  1828,  at  which  time  the  present 
church  edifice  was  erected. 

The  first  school  was  held  in  1741,  and  the  first  Temperance  Society 
was  formed  in  Wareham,  in  1824. 

In  1742.  Wareham  sent  out  a colony  of  more  than  100,  which  set- 
tled in  Sharon,  Ct.  From  1739  to  1829,  deer  reeves  were  annually 
elected,  to  enforce  the  laws  for  the  protection  of  these  animals. 

Wareham  has  long  been  celebrated  for  its  iron  and  nail  manufac- 
tories. The  first  machinery  for  making  of  nails,  was  introduced  by 
I.  & J.  Pratt,  & Co.,  in  1822. 

In  1822,  B.  Murdock  & Co.,  built  the  Washington  Iron  Works  on 
the  Weweantit  river.  - In  1828,  a second  dam  was  ereeted,  a half  a 
mile  above.  In  1827,  the  “Poles  Works”  were  erected;  in  1828,  the 
“ Tihonet  Works,”  and  in  1836,  the  “ Agawam  Works.” 

Most  of  these  establishments  have  been  burnt  out  at  various  times. 
The  Washington  Works,  uow  called  Tremont,  have  lately  been  re- 
built in  the  best  style.  They  are  owned  by  Joshua  B.  Tobey.  The 
Poles  establishment  is  now  owned  by  the  Robinson  Iron  Co.

Besides  the  manufacture  of  nails,  much  attention  has  been  given  to 
iron  casting  and  iron  manufacturing.  The  ‘‘Franconia  Works,”  on 
the  wharf,  below  the  Narrows,  employ  a large  number  of  men  in 
making  merchantable  iron.  T.  Tisdale,  Fsq.,  is  at  the  head  of  the 
Agawam  Works.  The  first  blast  furnace  was  erected  in  1805,  on  the 
Weweantit  river. 

About  18*20,  the  manufacture  of  hollow  ware,  in  blast  furnaces,  was 
the  most  thriving  business  in  the  vicinity,  although  most  of  the  fur- 
naces were  in  Carver  and  Middleboro,  yet  the  ore  was  brought  from 
New  Jersey,  and  landed  at  Wareham ; from  thence  it  was  hauled  to 
the  different  furnaces  and  the  ware  returned  to  Wareham,  for  ship- 
ing.  Whole  forests  of  pitch  pine  timber  were  felled,  and  converted 
into  coal  to  melt  the  moulton  masses  writh  which  these  various  furnaces 
were  continually  charged.  The  introduction  of  hard  coal  and  pig  iron, 
completely  revolutionized  this  business,  and  blast  furnaces  were 
abandoned. 

The  manufacture  of  staves  and  nail  casks  has  long  been  an  impor- 
tant branch  of  business.  The  name  of  Lewis  Kenney,  is  inseparably 
connected  with  this  business,  and  in  1829,  the  first  machinery  for  saw- 
ing the  staves,  was  introduced  by  him,  since  which  time  he  has  added 
many  valuable  machines  for  sawing. 

The  first  cotton  factory  here,  was  built  in  1812.  In  1816,  Curtis 
Tobey  built  another,  and  in  1828,  Benjamin  Lincoln,  added  still  anoth- 
er factory.  Nothing  is  done  .in  this  line  now. 

The  first  paper  mill  was  on  the  Weweantit,  built  in  1824,  by  Pardon 
Tabor.  The^new  paper  establishment,  near  the  Tremont  -depot,  was 
lately  erected  by  Wheelwright  & Co.,  of  Boston.  This,  in  1865,  em- 
ployed 13  hands. 

During  the  Revolutionary  war,  when  salt  was  in  great  demand,  our 
people  embarked  largely  in  its  manufacture,  by  boiling  the  sea  water 
in  large  kettles.  From  1806,  through  the  second  war  with  England, 
great  quantities  of  salt  were  made  by  evaporation. 

The  last  native  Indians  died  about  1830.  When  their  ancestors 
sold  the  land  here,  one  of  the  rights  reserved  was  that  of  cutting  broom- 
. sticks  and  basket  stuff,  wherever  they  chose. 

The  soil  is  diluvial,  and  our  people  have  given  much  more  attention 
to  manufacturing  than  farming.  Formerly  there  were  many  good 
orchards.

WEST  BEIJJ  GE  WA  TER. 

rpHE  early  history  of  what  is  now  the  four  Bridgewaters,  was  of 

1 course  interwoven,  so  that  previous  articles  on  the  other  towns, 
have  forestalled  much  that  would  otherwise  have  been  mentioned  in 
the  sketch  of  this  town. 

Agriculture  is  the  principal  business  in  West  Bridgewater,  and  the 
large  farms  pf  rich,  mellow  land,  under  the  skillful  management  of 
our  intelligent  farmers,  yield  good  returns.  There  are  also  several 
boot  and  shoe  establishments,  as  well  as  good  water  power,  used  in  the 
manufacture  of  iron. 

Centre  and  Cochesett  villages,  in  West  Bridgewater,  about  two  miles 
apart,  are  neat,  and  busy  in  the  labors  of  domestic  industry.

W ©at  Bridgewater  lies  twenty- tive  miles  south  from  Boston,  twenty 
north-west  from  Plymouth,  ten  north  north-east  from  Taunton,  and 
twenty-live  north  *by  east  from  Fall  River. 

The  following  were  tho  names  of  the  fifty-four  original  proprietors ; 
those  whose  names  are  printed  in  italics , became  permanent  settlers. 

William  Bradford,  William  Merrick,  John  Bradford,  Abraham 
Pierce,  John  Rogers,  George  Partridge,  John  Starr,  William  Collier, 
Christopher  Wadsworth,  Edward  Hall,  Nicholas  Robbins,  Thomas 
Hayward , Ralph  Partridge,  Nathaniel  Willis , John  Willis , Thomas 
Benney,  Miles  Standish,  Love  Brewster,  John  Paybody,  Francis 
Sprague,  William  Bassett ■,  John  Washburn , John  Washburn,  jr.}  John 
Ames , Thomas  Gannett,,  William  Brett,  Edmund  Hunt,  William  Clarke, 
William  Ford,  Constant  Southworth,  John  Gary,  Edmund  Weston, 
Samuel  Tompkins , Edmund  Chandler,  Moses  Simmons,  John  Irish, 
Philip  Delano,  Arthur  Harris , John  Alden,  John  Jobes,  Samuel  Nash, 
Abram  Sampson,  George  Soule,  Experience  Mitchell,  Henry  Howland 
Henry  Sampson,  John  Brewer,  John  Ha-ward , Francis  West,  William 
Tubbs,  James  Lendall,  Samuel  Eaton,  Solomon  Leonard,  Wm.  Paybody. 

Thus  it  will  be  seen  that  of  the  fifty-four  original  proprietors,  only 
sixteen  became  inhabitants  of  the  new  settlement.  The  grant  of  the 
Bridgewater  plantation,  as  we  have  seen,  was  in  1646,  and  the  settle- 
ment made  in  1650.  The  first  settlers  had  a house-lot  of  six  acres 
each  on  the  town  river,  and  the  place  was  called  Nnckatest,  or  Nunck- 
etetest.  The  first  lots  were  taken  up  at  West  Bridgewater;  first  houses 
built  and  the  first  improvements  made  there.  The  settlement  was  com- 
pact,— the  house-lots  being  contiguous, — with  a view  for  mutual  pro- 
tection and  aid  against  the  Indians ; and,  a3  a further  protection  from 
the  natives,  they  erected  a stockade  or  garrison  on  the  South  side  of 
the  river,  and  fortified  many  of  their  dwellings.  From  this  original 
home,  the  settlers  scattered  into  other  portions  of  the  town,  extending 
their  dwellings  first  into  the  South  part  of  the  town,  toward  Nippenic- 
ket  Pond,  on  the  road  to  Taunton,  whither  they  were  in  the  habit  of 
going  either  to  mill  or  to  trade;  and  we  are  told  they  frequently  went 
to  that  place  on  foot,  with  the  grists  upon  their  backs,  a distance  of 
several  miles. 

The  West  parish  was  never  incorporated  by  an  Act  of  the  Legisla- 
ture, but  the  parochial  affairs  were  for  many  years,  transacted  by  the 
old  town.  It  was  incorporated  as  West  Bridgewater,  Feb.  16th,  1822, 
thus  leaving  the  South  Parish  to  retain  the  old  name  of  Bridgewater. 

On  the  3d  of  June,  1856,  the  four  Bridgewaters,  united  in.  celebrat- 
ing the  two  hundredth  anniversary  of  the  incorparation  of  the  old 
town.  x\n  address  was  delivered  by  Hon.  Emery  Washburn,  of  Cam- 
bridge, and  a Poem  by  Rev.  James  Reed,  of  Boston.  A dinner  was 
prepared,  for  a thousand  people,  at  which  appropriate  and  interesting 
remarks  were  made  by  a numbered  distinguished  gentlemen.

PLYMOUTH  COUNTY  HISTORY. 


A hymn  was  sung  at  the  celebration;  written  by  William  C.  Bryant. 
Esq.,  of  New  York,  and  another  by  Rev.  Daniel  Huntington,  of  New 
London,  which,  after  alluding  in  grateful  terms,  to  diir  fathers,  who — 

“ Bought  these  fields  of  savage  men. 

And  reared  their  homes  and  altars  here.” 

closed  with  the  following  stanzas  : — 

“ They  left  us  freedom,  honor,  truth  ; 

Oh  ! may  these  rich  bequests  descend 
From  sire  to  son,  from  age  to  youth, 

And  bless  our  land  till  time  shall  end ! 

So,  as  successive  centuries  roll, 

When  we  shall  long  have  passed  away. 

Here  may  our  sons,  with  heart  and  soul. 

Still  hail  Bridgewater’s  natal  day.”

“The  Soldiers’  Monument  was  finished  by  the  Quincy  Granite  Co. 
The  base  is  four  feet  square,  the  second  section  three  feet  square,  and 
the  shaft  28  inches  at  the  base  and  16  at  the  top,  with  a total  height 
of  twenty  feet.  On  a raised  shield  are  the  words,  “Our  Patriot  Sol- 
.diers,”  and  the  date,  1867,  to  show  when  erected.  On  one  side  is  a 
bronze  plate,  with  the  names,  ages,  dates,  &c.,  of  the  twenty-four  men 
lost  from  this  town.  It  cost  $1000,  and  is  erected  on  the  square  in

a beautiful  polish  that  will  not  rub  off,  or  soil  the  clothing.  This  Dressing  should  be 
in  every  family,  as  it  can  be  easily  applied,  even  by  children,  and  a free  use  of  it  will 
add  materially  to  the  durability  of  the  leather.  It  is  also  invaluable  for  Blacking  and

We  wish  to  call  your  attention  to  a new  and  improved  Seed  Sower,  which  has  been 
thoroughly  tested  and  has  given  entire  satisfaction.  This  machine  possesses  improve- 
ments over  any  other  hand  Seed  Sower  in  use.  It  drops  the  seed  by  a reciprocating 
motion  of  the  Seed  Box;  therefore  there  are  no  mechanical  movements  inside  of  the 
box,  such  as  Brush,  Cylinder,  or  Agitator,  and  this  motion  keeps  the  seed  in  constant 
agitation,  prevents  the  clogging  of  the  outlet,  and  insures  an  even  dropping  of  the 
seed.  One  season’s  wse  of  the  machine  will  convince  any  one  that  it  will  sow  all  kinds 
of  garden  seed  better  than  an}*  other  Seed  Sower  in  use,  and  will  save  half  the  labor  in 
thinning  the  plants,  as  it  has  a large  number  of  Seed  Slides,  and  can  be  easily  changed 
to  sow  thick  or  thin,  and  will  sow  the  whole  contents  of  the  box  with  the  same  even- 
ness and  regularity.  The  machines  are  made  in  the  most  thorough  manner  and  of  the 
best  material,  and  we  warrant  the  machine  to  sow  all  kinds  of  Carden  Seed  and  Conn 
Beans  and  Peas,  in  the  most  desirable  manner. 

All  Orders  promptly  attended  to.

ANNUAL  CASH  DIVIDENDS 
Paid  on  renewal  of  all  Policies  that  have  been  in  force  two  years.. 

Dividends  Added  to  the  Policy  often  exceed  the  amount  of  Premiums  paid,  and 
are  also  Non-Forfeitable,  and  w ill  be  redeemed  in  cash  on  demand. 

Premiums  may  be  paid  in  one,  five,  ten,  annual,  semi-annual,  or  quarterly  payments. 

Rates  on  10  Annual  Life  and  on  Endowment  Policies  are  from  10  to  25  per  cent, 
higher  in  the  Note  Companies  than  in  the  Berkshire. 

Surplus  Distributed  Equitably  as  each  member  has  contributed  to  the  same ; no 
one  should  desire  more,  and  no  one  should  be  satisfied  with  less. 

AVERAGE  ANNUAL  DIVIDEND 

FOR  THE  PAST  FOUR  YEARS 

FORTY-FOUR  PER  CENT.  OF  THE  ANNUAL  LIFE  RATE; 

Adding  in  many  cases  to  the  Policy  more  than  the  premium  paid,  and  on  Endow  - 
ment and  10  Annual  Life  Policies  from  60  to  120  per  cent,  of  the  Annual  Life  Rate  ; 
being,  with  the  reduction  in  rate,  a larger  Dividend  than  has  ever  been  paid  by  any 
Note  Company. 

EPThe  Cash  System  is  universally  conceded  to  be  the  safest,  cheapest,  and  best  | 
for  all  kinds  of  business  ; why  should  the  business  of  Life  Insurance  be  an  exception  r 
If  Losses  and  Dividends  are  paid  in  cash,  Premiums  must  also  be  paid  in  Cash. 

Without  claiming  advantages  that  may  not  also  be  attained  by  others,  we  do  claim 
for  the  Berkshire  Life  Insurance  Company,  a higher  ratio  of  assets  to  liability,  and 
much  lower  ratio  of  losses  and  expenses  to  income,  than  most  companies, — as  appears  by 
the  Mass.  Ins.  Commissioners’  11th  Annual  Report, — the  result  of  a cai’eful  selection 
of  risks,  economy  of  management,  and  prudent  investment  of  funds,  (at  as  high  rates 
of  Interest  as  are  consistent  with  safety  and  immediate  availability) ; prompt  settle- 
ment of  claims  and  equitable  distribution  of  surplus  unsurpassed  by  any  Company, 
and  cordially  invite  the  examination  of  its  advantages  by  the  public. 

(Uf’Responsible,  Active  and  Energetic  persons  wishing  to  act  as  Agents  of  the  Com- 
pany in  localities  favorable  to  longevity,  and  persons  contemplating  Life  or  Endow- 
ment Insurance,  are  invited  to  correspond  with  the  Company  or  any  of  its  Agents.

THE  AMERICAN  ORGANS  are  the  ONLY  REAL  REED  ORGANS  now  before 
the  public.  The  only  Organ  having  a REVERBERATING  SOUND  BOX  or  WIND 
CHEST — which  has  the  same  important  part  to  perform  as  the  Sounding  Board  has 
in  the  Piano  Forte,  (to  give  body  and  resonance  of  tone)  and  without  which  the  Or- 
gan becomes  merely  a Melodeon  in  an  Organ  Case.  The  American  Organs  not  only 
have  the  Wind  Chest  or  Sound  Box,  but  have  the  large  Organ  Bellows,  giving  power 
and  great  steadiness  of  tone.  These  with  their  extreme  fine  voicing  of  the  Reeds  and 
perfecting  of  the  tone,  make  them  the  MOST  PERFECT  ORGAN  KNOWN.  These 
great  improvements  and  superiority  of  tone  and  workmanship  of  the  AMERICAN 
ORGANS  place  them  in  the  front  rank  as  the  best,  and  command  a higher  price  than 
any  other  reed  instrument  in  the  Market.  A careful  examination  of  them,  in  com- 
parison with  others,  will  quickly  show  their  superiority.

GRAND  TRIAL 
— OF — 

SEWING  MACHINES, 

(Between  the  Willcox  & Gibbs  and  Florence.) 

The  Willcox  & Gibbs  Triumphant ! 

It  is  declared  the  best  machine  and  awarded  the 

HIGHEST  PREMIUM. 

For  the  Willcox  & Gibbs  Machine  thirty-five  distinct  claims 
were  made  for  superiority,  all  of  which  were  fully  sustained ; 
for  the  Florence  Machine  but  ten  were  presented,  only  two  of 
which  were  sustained.  By  this  trial,  more  thorough  than  any 
of  the  kind  ever  previously  attempted — a trial  before  an  able 
and  impartial  jury,  the  justice  of  whose  verdict  none  can  dis- 
pute— it  has  been  proved,  decided  and  published  to  the  world  that  the  Willcox  & 
Gibbs  Machine  is  just  w'hat  it  is  claimed  to  be — an  Improvement  on  Double  Thread 
Machines.  It  requires,  we  think,  no  prophet  to  foresee  its  accelerated  progress  in  the 
future,  or  to  foretell  its  ultimate  triumph  as  the  recognized  Standard  Sewing  Machine 
of  the  world.  Circulars,  containing  full  Report  of  the  Judges  and  all  particulars  at

Medal  Awarded  at  the  Massachusetts  Mechanics'  Charitable  Association  Fair,  1865. 

Eureka  Oil  Co., 


Office  No.  86  Sudbury  Street. 

The  great  advantage  of  Eureka  Oil  over  all  other  Illuminating  oils,  is  evident  from 
its  steady,  brilliant  light,  next  to  gas,  without  smoke,  or  any  offensive  odor  even  with 
the  wick  turned  down,  and  its  being  perfectly  clean,  not  penetrating  the  lamp,  and 
j non-explosive.  For  Softness,  Brilliancy,  Cheapness,  and  durability,  it  excels  every 
other  light  presented  to  the  public.  In  common  fluid  lamps,  and  in  chimney  lamps, 
with  “The  Union  Hinge  Burner”  it  gives  perfect  satisfaction,  taking  the  place  of  the 
various  light-bodied  Petroleum  or  Naptha  fluids,  colored  oils,  and  explosive  kerosene. 
It  is  highly  popular  where  it  is  introduced,  and  needs  only  a fair  trial  to  be  fully  ap- 
preciated. 

For  Sale  at  Wholesale  and  Retail. 

ALSO, 

Lamps,  Lanterns,  Wicks, 

CHIMNEYS,  UNION  HINGE  AND

“Eureka  Oil  Company,” 

NO.  86  SUDBURY  STREET,  BOSTON , MASS. 


0"To  avoid  Counterfeits,  Dealers  are  hereby  cautioned  against  purchasing  any  oil 
under  the  name  of  Eureka,  except  from  this  office,  or  from  duly  authorized  Agents, 
who  are  always  furnished  with  Certificates.  Travelling  Agents  are  not  authorized  to 
collect  bills. 


CERTIFICATE. 

Middleboro,  Mass. 

This  is  to  certify  that  I have,  for  several  months,  used  the  “Eureka  Oil”  in  my 
family,  and  have  no  hesitancy  in  pronouncing  it  a superior  article  for  illuminating 
purposes.  It  gives  a clear  light,  is  cheap  and  safe.  WARREN  LEE  GOSS.

Throw  away  your  false  frizzles,  your  switches,  jour  wig, 
Destructive  of  comfort,  and  uot  worth  i fig  *, 

Come  aged,  come  youthful  come  ugly  and  fair. 

And  rejoice  in  your  own  luxuriant  hair. 

REPARATOR  CAPILLI, 

For  restoring  hair  upon  bald  heads  (from  whatever 
cause  it  may  have  fallen  out)  and  forcing  a growth  of 
hair  upon  the  face,  it  h s no  equal.  It  will  force  the 
beard  to  grow  upon  the  smoothest  face  in  from  five  to 
eight  weeks,  or  hair  upon  bald  he  ids  in  from  two  to 
three  moths.  A tew  ignorant  practitioners  have  as- 
serted that  there  is  nothing  that  will  force  or  hasten 
the  growth  of  the  hair  or  beard.  Their  assertions  are 
false,  as  thousands  ol  living  witnesses  (from  their  own 
experience*  can  bear  witness.  Put  many  will  say  now 
are  we  to  distin  uish  the  genuine  from  the  spurious  ? 
It  certainly  is  difficult,  as  nine-tenths  of  the  different 
preparations  advertised  lor  the  hair  and  beard  « re  en- 
tirely worthless,  and  you  may  have  alreai  y thrown 
away  large  amounts  in  their  purchase.  To  such  we 
would  say.  tty  the  Reparator  Capilli ; it  will  cost  you 
nothing  unless  it  fully  comes  up  to  our  representations.

and  we  will  forward  it,  postpaid,  togethi  r with  a receipt 
for  the  money,  which  will  be  returned  to  y iu  on  appli- 
cation, providing  entire  s tisfaction  is  not  given.  Ad-

SEWING  MACHINES , 

(Between  the  Willcox  & Gibbs  and  Florence.) 

The  Willcox  & Gibbs  Triumphant! 

It  is  declared  the  best  machine  and  awarded  the 

HIGHEST  PREMIUM. 

For  the  Willcox  & Gibbs  Machine  thirty-five  distinct  claims 
were  made  for  superiority,  all  of  which  were  fully  sustained; 
for  the  Florence  Machine  but  ten  were  presented,  only  two  of 
which  were  sustained.  By  this  trial,  more  thorough  than  any 
of  the  kind  ever  previously  attempted — a trial  before  an  able 
and  impartial  jivry,  the  justice  of  whose  verdict  none  can  dis- 
pute'— it  has  been  proved,  decided  and  published  to  the  world  that  the  Willcox  & 
Gibbs  Machine  is  just  what  it  is  claimed  to  be— an  Improvement  on  Double  Thread 
Machines.  It  requires,  we  think,  no  prophet  to  foresee  its  accelerated  progress  in  the 
future,  or  to  foretell  its  ultimate  triumph  as  the  recognized  Standard  Sewing  Machine 
of  the  world.  Circulars,  containing  full  Report  of  the  Judges  and  all  particulars  at 
this  important  trial,  at  the  office  of  the  Willcox  & Gibbs  Sewing  Machine  Company.

Young  Ladies  Beware  ! 

Of  the  Injurious  Effects  of  Face  Powders  and  Washes.  All  such  remedies  close 
up  the  pores  of  the  skin,  and  in  a short  time  destroy  the  complexion.  If  you  would 
have  a fresh,  healthy  and  youthful  appearance,  use  Helmbold’s  Extract  Sarsapa- 
rilla.
